In Made to Stick, Chip and Dan Heath reveal the anatomy of ideas that stick and explain ways to make ideas stickier, such as applying the human scale principle, using the Velcro Theory of Memory, and creating curiosity gaps.

What if a manager knew how to create an experience that would delight customers? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children?
