Pink entlarvt anhand neuester psychologischer Erkenntnisse die Mär vom scheinbar coolen Slogan “No regrets” – und führt vor Augen, wie wichtig Reue für unser Vorankommen ist. Denn jeder Mensch bereut, in seinem Leben etwas getan oder nicht getan zu haben. Er erklärt, wie wir diese unterschätzte Emotion verstehen und einordnen lernen, und wie sie uns dabei helfen kann, bessere Entscheidungen zu treffen und unserem Leben einen größeren Sinn zu verleihen. In der Gegenwart und in der Zukunft.

    • Verkaufen ist zutiefst menschlich! Kollegen für die gemeinsame Sache gewinnen, wichtige Geldgeber überzeugen oder das eigene Kind dazu kriegen, früher ins Bett zu gehen – tagtäglich sind wir bestrebt, uns und unsere Anliegen bestmöglich zu verkaufen und etwas voranzutreiben. Wir verbringen damit sehr viel mehr Zeit, als wir ahnen und uns meist auch eingestehen wollen. Und: Die Fähigkeit, andere zu überzeugen, ist für unser Überleben und unser Wohlbefinden entscheidend. New-York-Times-Bestsellerautor Daniel Pink eröffnet eine völlig neue und inspirierende Perspektive auf die Kunst des Verkaufens und erklärt nicht nur dessen grundlegend neue Bedeutung für uns alle, sondern auch, warum das schlechte Image des Verkäufers längst überholt ist. Er zeigt uns außerdem, wie jeder lernen kann, seine Nachfrage zu erhöhen – mit einem Stil, der im Einklang mit den eigenen Werten steht.

    • From the bestselling author of Drive and A Whole New Mind comes an exploration of the power of selling, which we all engage in daily, often without realizing it. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, one in nine Americans works in sales, with over fifteen million people earning a living by persuading others to make purchases. However, the truth is that sales extend beyond those in designated roles; the other eight out of nine Americans are also involved in some form of selling. Whether as entrepreneurs seeking funding, employees pitching ideas, or parents and teachers influencing children, we constantly strive to move others. Today, we are all in the "moving business," as Daniel H. Pink describes it. This thought-provoking book presents a fresh perspective on the art and science of selling, illustrating that modern sales have evolved from outdated practices. With significant economic shifts, the traditional, manipulative sales tactics have become obsolete. Instead, a new approach focuses on three essential human qualities and four surprising skills. Pink combines scientific research with engaging stories and practical tools, making this an accessible yet insightful read for those unfamiliar with sales literature. It promises to reshape your understanding of interactions at work, school, and home.

    • We're all in Sales now. Each day millions of people earn their keep by convincing someone else to make a purchase. They sell planes to airlines, oil shares to sheiks, cars to drivers. They sell consulting agreements, magazine subscriptions, time-shares, double glazing, broadband, fitted kitchens, car insurance, life insurance, pet insurance! Some work in fancy offices with glorious views, others in dreary cubicles, but most look exactly like you. In fact, each and every one of us spends time trying to persuade others to part with resources - money, time, attention - though most of the time we don't realise we're doing it. Parents sell their kids on going to bed. Spouses sell their partners on mowing the lawn or putting the cat out. We sell our bosses on giving us more money and more time off. And in astonishing numbers we go online to sell ourselves on Facebook, Twitter and in Match.com profiles. In this new book from the bestselling author of Drive, Dan Pink explores the ways in which we can all improve our sales skills, in every area of our lives and identifies the three personal qualities and four essential skills necessary to move people.Relying on science rather than platitudes and analysis instead of exhortation, Dan builds on his own sales experience and on the profiles of some of the world's best salespeople - and makes us look again at our own sales skills.
