The vision of The Power of Habit™

The Power of Habit is based on Charles Duhigg's bestseller, in which he lays out the latest science on habit formation in a practical way. He clearly shows how habits work. During the one-day training The Power of Habit you will learn to develop your own effective habits with skill instead of willpower, with which you can master every habit. You could call this skill "the one who rules them all, the habit of all habits".

How can The Power of Habit™ impact your company?

The Power of Habit helps organizations meet challenges related to agility, adaptability, efficiency, engagement, quality, safety, skill development and more.

AGILITY & ADAPTABILITY

The case study of Travis Leach, who made a dramatic change after learning a few skills at Starbucks, demonstrates how simple shifts in habits can drastically alter workplace performance and life outcomes.

EFFICIENCY

Habits are automatic routines that occur with very little thought or effort. Workers at the Alcoa Corporation automated a behavioral safety routine that dramatically improved efficiency, productivity, and revenue.

QUALITY & SAFETY

Organizations don’t instill workplace behaviors simply because leaders order it. Only by implementing measures and learning that foster habit formation can they successfully help employees meet quality, safety, regulatory, or cultural standards.

ENGAGEMENT

As people increase their ability to build good habits, they become more engaged in work and life and take greater responsibility for outcomes.

SKILL DEVELOPMENT

When employees know how to leverage the power of habit they can quickly adopt new skills and turn them into habits.
