About this listen

The New York Times best-selling authors of Switch and Made to Stick explore why certain brief experiences can jolt, elevate and change us - and how we can learn to create such extraordinary moments in our life and work.

What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew his students would remember 20 years later? What if a doctor or nurse knew how to orchestrate moments that would bring more comfort to patients? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children? Many of the defining moments in our lives are the result of accident or luck - but why leave our most meaningful, memorable moments to chance when we can create them?

In The Power of Moments, Chip and Dan Heath explore the stories of people who have created standout moments, from the owners who transformed an utterly mediocre hotel into one of the best-loved properties in Los Angeles by conjuring moments of magic for guests, to the scrappy team that turned around one of the worst elementary schools in the country by embracing an intervention that lasts less than an hour.

Filled with remarkable tales and practical insights, The Power of Moments proves we all have the power to transform ordinary experiences into unforgettable ones.

Fantastic resource

Love the heath brothers and their books.

I have learned much about how they weave lessons and using stories throughout to highlight lessons learned.

Worth reading and listening.

As everyone says - incredible!

I love how practical the Heath brothers make their books so that you can see the model in action and start applying it straight away. I’m heading back to the beginning of the book with a pad and paper in my hand.
The reader was a too slow for me so I played it on 1.2x speed.
Thanks also for the resources they provide on their website (listed at the end of the book).

Excellent (audio) book

I really enjoyed this book. It has so many useful snippets that you can apply to all parts of your life (work and life in general). I was recommended this book as a designer but I can truly see the value for anyone, at any stage in their life and in any career.
