The real bottom line is people

The Catalyst: How to Change Anyone’s Mind book cover

One of the most challenging parts of being a Social Capital leader is persuasion. Changing the minds of the people in your sphere of influence — whether they are team members, customers or members of your community — is not easy. In The Catalyst, Jonah Berger, a professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, reveals what successful change agents have discovered: They need to be catalysts — people who remove roadblocks preventing change. That means focusing not on how to change their minds but why they haven’t done so already. This book, released in 2022, has become a classic in the persuasion genre, and is a must-read for anyone who wants to change the world.
