The Power of Moments by Chip Heath
What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew students would remember twenty years later? We all have defining moments in our lives - meaningful experiences that stand out in our memory. In this book, the authors ask: why leave our most meaningful, memorable moments to chance when we can create them?
The most interesting, immediately actionable book I’ve read in quite a whileI walked away with new ideas for motivating employees, delighting customers, engaging students, and even planning family vacations. If life is a series of moments, the Heath brothers have transformed how I plan to spend mine. * Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of GIVE AND TAKE, ORIGINALS, and OPTION B with Sheryl Sandberg *
I read this cover to cover and learned something new on each page. Beautifully written, brilliantly researched - I'm recommending it to everyone I know! * Angela Duckworth, author of GRIT *
This terrific book is bursting with practical insights and memorable stories on every page. It's as relevant to product designers and entrepreneurs as it is to teachers and parents. I've already put many of its novel suggestions to work. Don't miss it. * Eric Ries, author of The Lean Start-Up *
Flat out amazing... The best business book I've read in a while. * Jake Knapp, author of SPRINT *
Chip and Dan are amazing and impactful story tellers. In The Power of Moments they are able to use stories to display a powerful truth, that we can be more impactful as leaders and as people by recognizing and creating more 'moments'.

This book truly frames that thinking in an easy to understand and engaging way. Perhaps even more importantly, I can see many similar opportunities in my life as a husband, father and member of a community. * Craig Kreeger, CEO of Virgin Atlantic *
