Switch! How to Change Things When Change is Hard
October 24, 2025
8:30 - 3:30
Online/Google Classroom
The primary obstacle is a conflict that’s built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems—the rational mind and the emotional mind—that compete for control.
The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie.
The rational mind wants to change something at work; the emotional mind loves the comfort of the existing routine. This tension can doom a change effort—but if it is overcome, change can come quickly.
In Switch, the Heaths show how employees and managers, parents and nurses—everyday people-- have united both minds and, as a result, achieved dramatic results:
In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change.
Meeting/assignment drop dates will fall between 10/24 and 12/19/2025.
