The End of Average Zusammenfassung

The End of Average: How to Succeed in a World That Values Sameness Todd Rose

Why don't Meyers-Briggs personality tests really work? Why are HR tests for new employees often meaningless? Is there another way of ranking students' performance? We all behave, learn, and develop in different ways, but these unique patterns of human behaviour get lost in massive systems that play to average performance and average abilities. From academic grading methods to job applicant profiling and even medical treatments, these systems ignore our differences and ultimately fail at measuring and maximizing our potential. The End of Average draws on the very latest findings in the fields of psychology and sociology to show how, when we focus on individual findings rather than group averages, we are empowered to rethink the world and our place in it. 'Fascinating, engaging, and practical.' Amy Cuddy 'Transforms our understanding of who we are and what's important.' Seth Godin

The End of Average Bewertungen

Fascinating, engaging, and practical. Todd Rose dispels the myth that our success can be divined by a simple number or average, whether a grade, a score in a standardized test, or a ranking at work. The End of Average will help everyone-and I mean everyone-live up to their potential. -- Amy Cuddy author of Presence
Todd Rose will change the way you see culture, school, work and everyone around you. Taylorism is officially dead. With compelling stories and an engaging style, he transforms our understanding of who we are and what's important. -- Seth Godin author of Tribes
Todd Rose has taken the latest findings from a new area of science, the science of the individual, to show that our one-dimensional understanding of achievement - our search for the average score, average grade, average talent - has seriously underestimated human potential. This book is readable, enlightening, and way above average. -- Daniel H. Pink author of Drive
A cogent rebuttal of assumptions about averageness -- Jonathon Keats * New Statesman *
Heartening . . . a worthwhile read for the aspiring nonconformist -- Iain Morris * Observer *
