En savoir plus sur le livre

This landmark book revolutionizes our understanding of leadership and decision-making from bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell. Following his breakthrough bestseller, Gladwell delves into how we think without thinking, exploring choices made in an instant that are more complex than they appear. The book addresses why some individuals excel at decision-making while others falter, examining the role of instincts in success and failure. It investigates how our brains function across various settings—office, classroom, kitchen, and bedroom—and why the best decisions often defy explanation. Within its pages, we encounter a psychologist who can predict marriage longevity after observing a couple for mere minutes, a tennis coach who anticipates a player's double-fault before contact, and antiquities experts who identify fakes at a glance. The narrative also highlights notable failures of instinctive decision-making, such as the election of Warren Harding, the introduction of "New Coke," and the tragic shooting of Amadou Diallo. Ultimately, the book reveals that exceptional decision-makers are not those who analyze the most information but those who master "thin-slicing"—distilling the essential factors from a sea of variables.
