37 分钟Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist and author Charles Duhigg on what makes a "supercommunicator."
Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab, hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, she's tackling topics that affect her own life, like stress, perfectionism, and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.
The ability to connect and to align our goals to others is a real superpower.
Today, we will explore how to be a super communicator.
My name is Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of business.
Welcome to think fast, talk Smart, the podcast today, I'm excited to chat with Charles Duig.
Charles is a Pulitzer prize winning journalist who currently writes for the New Yorker magazine.
He is the author of the enormously popular and helpful the power of habit and smarter, faster, better.
His newest book, Super Communicators out now, fits squarely in the focus of this podcast.
Welcome Charles.
Thanks for having me.
I look forward to this conversation.
It's going to continue from the dialogue we had when we were out walking around where I grew up, and we had a lot of fun.
No, I've been looking forward to it, too.
Let's get started.
Both of your previous books focus on motivation, decision making, and personal growth.
