Somewhere along the way, we got distracted. As much as we multitask, love our devices and feel like we’re in control, deep down we know that something is off. Shortened attention spans, declines in critical thinking, lack of sleep, self-doubt and decreased creativity are just some of the effects coming to light in an age of digital distraction.

It’s time to reclaim our lives. It’s time to take control.

Lifescale is a journey of self-discovery and growth. It’s about getting back into balance and remastering our destinies. Author Brian Solis knows first-hand. He struggled with distraction and all of its ill-effects. To get his life back, he developed a set of techniques, exercises, and thought experiments designed to tame the chaos, and positively and productively navigate our day-to-day lives. Instead of falling victim to the never-ending cycle of newsfeeds, Likes, addictive apps, and boredom scrolling (aka the endless scroll), we can learn to manage our time and inspire our own lives in a way that will bring meaning back—without sacrificing the benefits that our devices bring us.

In Lifescale, Brian has done the legwork to pull together scientific findings and practical tools into one book. Readers—especially those who are distracted—will connect with the humor, pathos, and inspiration inside. Using this book’s simple but powerful lessons, we can:

Identify sources of distraction and turn attention toward creativity and productivity Understand and resist the manipulative techniques that turn us into digital addicts Find meaning and purpose to guide our time in more meaningful ways Visualize future success to successfully dive into deep work and stop procrastinating Break bad habits, establish rituals, and establish routines that help you achieve goals Nurture imagination and learn to express ourselves more artistically Maximize productivity with simple but effective strategies Focus for extended periods and make breaks more restorative Foster a strong sense of purpose in life and identify the steps needed to bring it to life every day Smile more and build self-esteem With the renewed perspective Lifescale offers, we can finally learn to prioritize what matters, and live our digital and physical lives with intention and true happiness.

Die Zukunftsfähigkeit von Unternehmen hängt vor allem davon ab, Kundenloyalität zu fördern und neue Kunden zu gewinnen. Jack Welch propagierte vor mehr als drei Jahrzehnten bereits, dass der Kunde das Gehalt der Mitarbeiter bezahlt und schrieb dies auch auf jeden Gehaltsscheck. Was altmodisch klingt, hat auch heute noch Gültigkeit und wird getrieben durch neue Kundengenerationen und disruptive Technologien, die den althergebrachten Kundenbeziehungen den Garaus machen. Bei einem kundenzentrierten Unternehmen steht der Kunde in allen Belangen im Mittelpunkt und das bedeutet, der Kunde steuert das Unternehmen. Das gilt für den Mittelstand ebenso wie für Konzerne.<br> In einer kundenzentrierten Organisation muss jeder Bereich seinen Beitrag für die Zufriedenheit des Kunden leisten. Somit könnte man das Bild bemühen, dass das gesamte Unternehmen zum Lösungslieferanten wird. Das leitet einen Kulturwandel ein, der die DNA der meisten Unternehmen grundlegend verändert.<br> Nicht nur die Konzerne stehen einer neuen Generation von Kunden gegenüber, deren Loyalität jeden Tag neu verdient werden muss. Kundenzentrierung (Customer Centricitiy) wird auch für den Mittelstand zur Überlebensfrage. Parallel zu den stetig steigenden Anforderungen der Kunden steigen die Bemühungen, diesen gerecht zu werden. Obwohl sich viele Unternehmen der Kundenzentrierung verschrieben haben, spüren die Kunden nur wenig davon. Die Gründe dafür sind vielfältig und werden im Buch von Werner Katzengruber und Dirk Johannsen unter anderem in Experteninterviews klar benannt. Was Kundenzentrierung wirklich bedeutet, und wie Sie Ihr Unternehmen nachhaltig und ganzheitlich auf den Kunden ausrichten, beschreibt dieses Buch. Die beiden Autoren stellen den Lesern in der Praxis bewährtes Wissen zur Verfügung, welches sie in über 20 Jahren gesammelt haben. Fragebögen geben außerdem die Möglichkeit, die für die eigene Organisation relevanten Antworten zu erarbeiten.

An insightful discussion and practical guide on how to put customers back into the center of your business model

With so many digital experiences touching our lives—and businesses—it’s understandable to feel like you’re drowning in data. There’s a dashboard or chart for just about everything, but data alone can’t help you understand and empathize with your customers. No amount of it will take you inside their heads, help you see the world through their eyes, or let you experience what it’s really like to be your customer. Only human insight from real people can do that.

User Tested gives both individual contributors and executives an approachable, pragmatic playbook for stepping beyond standard business metrics and infusing real human insight into every business decision, design, and experience.

In this book, you’ll:

Learn how businesses became obsessed with data—but disconnected from their customers—and why that’s not sustainable Get the basics about how to capture human insight through user testing, including how to find the right people, ask the right questions, and make sense of and act on all the insights you uncover Dive into a detailed playbook that shares real-world examples of how you can collect and scale human insight across the teams in your organization—from marketing to product, and beyond Learn how to evangelize the power of human insight throughout your organization, so every department can create a culture of customer empathy and share a firsthand understanding of customer needs Find out how companies like Microsoft, AAA Club Alliance, HelloFresh, and Notre Dame’s IDEA Center solidly connect with and elicit meaningful feedback from customers in friendlier, faster, and more direct ways Perfect for any industry, User Tested: How the World's Top Companies Use Human Insight to Create Great Experiences was co-authored by the chief insights officer and the CEO of UserTesting—a SaaS company fundamentally changing the way both B2B and consumer brands find out what real people think and feel. The book reflects the authors’ commitment to helping you position the customer squarely in the center of your business model by weaving their true voices throughout your company’s decision making.
