X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Changing how we work can feel overwhelming
 . It can feel like trying to budge an enormous boulder. We&rsquo\;re stifl
 ed by the gravity of the way we&rsquo\;ve always done things. We spend so 
 much time fighting fires&mdash\;and fighting colleagues&mdash\;that we lac
 k the energy to shift direction\, but with the right strategy\, we can mov
 e the boulder.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In <em>Reset: How to Change What&rsquo\;s No
 t Working</em>\, Heath explores a framework for getting unstuck and making
  the changes that matter. The secret is to find &ldquo\;leverage points&rd
 quo\;: places where a little bit of effort can yield a disproportionate re
 turn. Then\, we can thoughtfully rearrange our resources to push on those 
 points. Heath weaves together fascinating examples\, ranging from a freaki
 shly effective fast-food drive-thru to a simple trick from couples therapy
  to an inspirational campaign that saved a million cats.</p>\n<p>What if w
 e could unlock forward movement&mdash\;achieving progress on what matters 
 most&mdash\;without the need for more resources? The same people\, the sam
 e assets&hellip\;but dramatically better results. Yesterday\, we were stuc
 k. Today\, we reset.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In this talk\, you&rsquo\;ll learn the
  following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>How the feeling of progress can be your secret 
 weapon in accelerating change</li>\n<li>How leaders can uncover and stop w
 asteful activities</li>\n<li>Why your team&rsquo\;s motivation is often sq
 uandered&mdash\;and how to avoid that mistake</li>\n<li>How you can jumpst
 art your change efforts&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Dan Heath is the #1&nbsp\;N

 ness books:&nbsp\;<em>Switch\,&nbsp\;Made to Stick\,&nbsp\;Decisive\,&nbsp
