內容簡介

內容簡介 放棄的力量有時候，轉身離去就是最佳解法！賓州大學認知心理學博士杜克結合職業撲克玩家經驗與心理學知識，投身決策領域研究，著作《高勝算決策》《高勝算決策２》都成為全美財經暢銷書。杜克在新作中打破大眾常有偏見，闡明「退」為成功不可或缺。她借鏡珠穆朗瑪峰登山者、Slack執行長巴特菲爾德等企業創辦人的故事，說明如何掌握「全押」與「棄牌」時機的策略，進而節省決策成本。Discover when to grit, and when to quitWe are often told that the secret to success is hard work, determination, and hours of practice. But in a fast-changing world, what if the really crucial skill is knowing when to stick at something and when to change track and walk away?Quit makes the under-appreciated case for quitting and also shows you how to get really good at it. Drawing on stories from elite athletes to Everest climbers, comedians to musicians, Annie Duke (who left a successful poker career) explains why learning to quit well is often crucial to success. She provides clear strategies for working out when to cut your losses from a business product that isn't working, a relationship turned toxic, or a career that won't take you where you want to go.You'll learn how to spot the blocks to good quitting behaviour -- escalation commitment, desire for certainty and the status quo bias -- and also how to use tools like quitting contracts, flexible goal-setting and premortems to help you quit cleanly and confidently.Whether you're facing a make-or-break business decision, a life-altering personal choice or simply wanting to take more control of your life, Quit provides a toolkit for change to help you make the best next move."
