You will be able to:
1. Use behavior science principles to identify key obstacles to client progress.
2. Apply targeted strategies to help clients overcome these obstacles and achieve their goals.
Change comes most readily when you understand what's standing between you and success and tailor your solution to that roadblock.
If you want to work out more but find exercise difficult and boring, downloading a goal-setting app probably won't help. But what if, instead, you transformed your workouts so they became a source of pleasure instead of a chore?
Turning an uphill battle into a downhill one is the key to success.
Drawing on Milkman's original research and the work of her world-renowned scientific collaborators, How to Change shares strategic methods for identifying and overcoming common barriers to change, such as impulsivity, procrastination, and forgetfulness.
Whether you're a manager, coach, or teacher aiming to help others change for the better or are struggling to kick-start change yourself.
How to Change offers an invaluable, science-based blueprint for achieving your goals, once and for all.
