The Halo Effect...and the Eight other Business Delusions that Deceive Managers
Phil Rosenzweig
Free Press (NY 2007)
​
The Halo Effect takes a critical look at many of the key business studies in the 1990s and early 2000s. Many of them stated that after much research, they had identified the "magic formula" (as I like to call it) for a successful business. Dr. Rosenzweig debunks those studies by showing that mountains of data and tons of research do not necessarily equal a recipe for success. Although it is over 10 years old, the lessons, in my humble opinion, still apply.

Jonah Lehrer
Houghton Mifflin Co (NY 2009)
​
Jonah Lehrer takes a deep dive,into how how we make decisions, whatÂ’s happening in our heads as we do so, and how we might all become better decision makers.
