Who’s Got Time to Read – 5 – Daniel Kahneman

Who’s Got Time to Read?! In a world where things are going increasingly fast, who still has time to read? Well… 2020 has changed that trend. Long periods of confinement have given us the opportunity to read, at last!  In this fifth and final article of the Who’s Got Time to Read series, I am telling you about another book I read – and recommend to anyone in the hospitality industry to read – that will help tremendously in your way of dealing with people and operational matters: Thinking Fast, Thing Slow, by Daniel Kahneman.  Read that book? Please comment and hopefully we will motivate those who haven’t read it yet to do so. Essential reading.   This book is way more technical and scientifically based compared to the previous books we promoted in this series. I believe Thinking Fast, Thinking Slow will give you an understanding of the inner forces in play that allow (or prevent) us to manage situations, people and most importantly ourselves.  Applied to hospitality, the content of this book is rich in practical elements that will enable its readers to deal with situations knowing and understanding what the outcome will (or at least could) be.  This is it for now. I hope this Who’s Got Time to Read series has helped and motivated you to purchase and read these essential books. And remember that the most important is not that we read these book… but that we apply their principles in our lives and in our businesses.  Please share and comment
