About this product
Product Information
2020 Foreword Indie Award Winner in the "Career" Category An internationally renowned psychologist shows us how overlooked factors in our work days-our physical environments, our unconscious habits, and even traits like our faces and voices-have the power to make or break our careers. In Whatever Works-The Small Cues That Make a Surprising Difference in our Success at Work-and How to Create a Happier Office , Thalma Lobel, one of the world's leading experts on human behavior, explores groundbreaking psychological research on job performance, satisfaction, and creativity. Lobel goes beyond obvious considerations like salary, title, and company culture to shed light on the hidden factors-often unrecognized, counterintuitive, or invisible-that have profound effects on how well we can do our jobs and how happy we are at work. Did you know that just doodling in a certain way can increase your creativity? That looking at something green for forty seconds will improve your attention? That crossing your legs similarly to an interviewer could get you the job? That the mere presence of a smartphone on your desk can lessen your performance, even if it's turned off? That being in a warmer room makes you more likely to want to conform with the group, affecting your decision-making? These are the invisible factors that nudge our behavior on a daily basis, and combined, have a real and significant bearing on our success-or failure-at work. In today's competitive market, where even tiny differences can be decisive, for both employees and organizations, exploiting such factors can make all the difference. The more you know about the subtle elements that can help or hinder you on the job, the better equipped you can be to take control and navigate today's competitive work world. Helpful for anyone from individual employees to managers to leaders of large organizations, Whatever Works shares valuable insights and practical takeaways to transform your professional life.

Reviews
"In Whatever Works , psychologist Thalma Lobel shares the surprising and unexpected ways small tweaks can have a big impact on our performance and success at work as well as our general job satisfaction . . . Fun, practical, and important!" -- Guy Winch, author of Emotional First Aid and three-time TED Talk speaker "Simple, accessible, profound. This book will help you introduce small changes to your environment that can make a big difference in your life. Thalma Lobel provides a blueprint for increasing levels of happiness and health, as well as success." -- Tal Ben Shahar, New York Times bestselling author of Happier " Whatever Works challenges the notion that 'anything works.' It presents a wonderful opportunity of using a growing body of research in an effort to improve life and work in simple but very effective ways." -- Efrat Dagan, head of talent at Next Insurance and former head of talent at both Google and Lyft "Professor Lobel has written a quite unputdownable, highly accessible, and personal book. The range of topics covered is very wide and she weaves together studies from many different areas of psychology. Most important, the book is strongly evidence-based , which reflects her wide and critical reading." -- Adrian Furnham, author of 50 Psychology Ideas You Really Need to Know and professor of psychology at University College London
