A fascinating journey into the hidden psychological influences that derail our decision-making, Sway will change the way you think about the way you think.
Why is it so difficult to sell a plummeting stock or end a doomed relationship? Why do we listen to advice just because it came from someone “important”? Why are we more likely to fall in love when there’s danger involved? In Sway , renowned organizational thinker Ori Brafman and his brother, psychologist Rom Brafman, answer all these questions and more.
Drawing on cutting-edge research from the fields of social psychology, behavioral economics, and organizational behavior, Sway reveals dynamic forces that influence every aspect of our personal and business lives, including loss aversion (our tendency to go to great lengths to avoid perceived losses), the diagnosis bias (our inability to reevaluate our initial diagnosis of a person or situation), and the “chameleon effect” (our tendency to take on characteristics that have been arbitrarily assigned to us).
Sway introduces us to the Harvard Business School professor who got his students to pay $204 for a $20 bill, the head of airline safety whose disregard for his years of training led to the transformation of an entire industry, and the football coach who turned conventional strategy on its head to lead his team to victory. We also learn the curse of the NBA draft, discover why interviews are a terrible way to gauge future job performance, and go inside a session with the Supreme Court to see how the world’s most powerful justices avoid the dangers of group dynamics.
Every once in a while, a book comes along that not only challenges our views of the world but changes the way we think. In Sway, Ori and Rom Brafman not only uncover rational explanations for a wide variety of irrational behaviors but also point readers toward ways to avoid succumbing to their pull.

介绍会让你很好奇,事例会让你很有同感,这是一般典型的外国人写的书。没有教条的说教,也没有夸夸其谈的大道理,就是不停的堆积事例和实验给你,通篇如此。 值得一读,但也别期望太高,他不会教你多少东西,只是告诉你一些现象和可能的原因
评分有几个问题来测试你或你的公司是否理性: 1、年末公司决定不像以往发放年终奖,但是老板突然决定一个人发2000元作为年终奖,(以前都是一万),以便来年员工努力工作,老板的新举措会起到激励作用吗? 2、比如你年终奖取消了,大约2万,你取消了购车计划,你感觉损失了一辆车...
评分序言——以案例的形式说明生活中以至于事关人类福祉的大事上都会出现不理智决策行为,用以表明不理智决策的普遍性。 第一章 机场跑道上的鲁莽决定——提出影响理性决策的原因有:损失规避、价值归因、判断偏差等。在损失规避中,提出“遭受损失带来的痛苦体验,往往要比赚钱...
评分第一遍读完这本书,感觉干货不多,主要是围绕“损失规避”和“价值归因”两方面写,例子特多,有些内容交叉了。但我仍然认为这是一本好书。一本好书不在乎它给你多少好东西,而在于它给你的都是精华。确实如此,本书虽啰嗦,却也将话题讨论地非常清楚。所以我写了一篇博文总结...
评分研究心理学和社会学的人对经济学总是有保留意见的。 经济学强调自私的理性人假设,心理学研究里有保留意见,他们说人经常会做出很不理性的事情,而且还会为所谓的非理性找到很多借口。在社会学研究里也有保留意见,他们说人经常做出无私的事情,并非是因为考虑回报而帮助别人...
