King P: How to Speed Read People

How to Speed Read People

Think Like a Psychologist, Analyze Human Behavior, and Decode Emotions

Understanding cooperation as a distinctly human combination of innate and learned behavior. Drop something in front of a two-year-old, and she’s likely to pick it up for you. This is not a learned behavior, psychologist Michael Tomasello argues. Through observations of young children in experiments he himself has designed, Tomasello shows that children are naturally—and uniquely—cooperative. Put through similar experiments, for example, apes demonstrate the ability to work together and share, but choose not to. As children grow, their almost reflexive desire to help—without expectation of reward—becomes shaped by culture. They become more aware of being a member of a group. Groups convey mutual expectations, and thus may either encourage or discourage altruism and collaboration. Either way, cooperation emerges as a distinctly human combination of innate and learned behavior. In Why We Cooperate, Tomasello’s studies of young children and great apes help identify the underlying psychological processes that very likely supported humans’ earliest forms of complex collaboration and, ultimately, our unique forms of cultural organization, from the evolution of tolerance and trust to the creation of such group-level structures as cultural norms and institutions. Scholars Carol S. Dweck, Joan B. Silk, Brian Skyrms, and Elizabeth S. Spelke respond to Tomasello’s findings and explore the implications.

Why We Cooperate

We are collectively creating results nobody wants, and most change efforts address the symptoms rather than the source. Presencing offers a different approach—one that bridges inner development with outer systems change through 7 concrete practices built for this moment. From Otto Scharmer, MIT senior lecturer and creator of Theory U, and Katrin Kaufer, MIT researcher, cofounder of the Presencing Institute, and author of Just Money (MIT Press), this field guide draws on more than twenty years of global work with the Theory U framework, now used by thousands of organizations across climate, finance, education, and social innovation. Inside this book: <ul><li>The Wheel of Deep Change — a framework mapping 7 societal sectors and specific leverage points where transformation takes hold</li><li>Social Fields theory — a deeper layer of systems thinking that accounts for the quality of consciousness from which collective action emerges</li><li>Seven step-by-step practices covering generative listening, dialogue, co-sensing, presencing, co-imagining, co-creating, and ecosystem governance</li><li>Real-world stories of “islands of coherence”—communities already demonstrating regenerative ways of working together across the globe</li><li>Reflection questions and dialogue prompts for individual readers, leadership teams, and classroom or workshop settings</li></ul> Readers new to Theory U will find a self-contained entry point, and those already familiar will find significant new depth and updated methods.

A revolutionary guide to catalyzing multi-system change and planetary healing. Experience 7 practices combined with powerful frameworks to create a more integrated and conscious future from the bestselling author of Theory U. We are living in a time of unprecedented crisis and breakdown. But amid the chaos, small "islands of coherence" are emerging—localized pockets of pioneering thought leaders taking action to begin to catalyze multi-system transformation. Incorporating proven frameworks like Social Fields and the Collective Evolutionary Mirror, the authors share transformative real-world stories of these islands of coherence from the frontlines of change across the globe. You'll go inside the experiences of paradigm-shifting change makers and gain powerful practices for sensing and actualizing the future that wants to emerge. This book outlines 7 critical contributions for elevating our civilization including: <ul><li>becoming aware</li><li>generative listening</li><li>dialogue and co-sensing</li><li>presencing</li><li>ecosystem leadership</li><li>co-creating across boundaries</li><li>build unity</li></ul> With this holistic guide, you'll discover how your local actions can cascade into a planetary movement for human and ecological flourishing. The next renaissance is emergent—be a part of birthing it into reality.

7 Practices for Transforming Self, Society, and Business

Highway Safety Analytics and Modeling, Second Edition comprehensively covers the key elements for effective transportation engineering and policy decisions based on highway safety data analysis in a single reference. It includes all aspects of the decision-making process, from collecting and assembling data to developing models and evaluating results. It discusses the challenges of working with crash and naturalistic data, identifies problems, and proposes well-researched methods to solve them. It examines the nuances associated with safety data analysis and shows how to best use the information to develop countermeasures, policies, and programs to reduce the frequency and severity of traffic crashes. This thoroughly updated second edition updates the material contained in the book based on the latest advancements in highway safety research as well as feedback from readers. It includes entirely new sections on topics such as digital twins as a source of data, model validation, extreme value models, temporal instability, joint crash frequency and severity modeling, sample size, quasi-induced exposure method, autonomous vehicle safety estimate, and more. This book serves as a valuable reference for students, researchers, and practitioners alike. It provides more examples and exercises to help in using the book for courses, and it continues to complement the Highway Safety Manual (HSM) published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AAHSTO), thus helping in the training of engineers and practitioners to better understand the concepts and methods outlined in the forthcoming HSM.

Stop running toward someone else’s definition of success, and start intentionally shaping your own. This prequel to Aesop’s famous tortoise and hare fable shows exhausted professionals how to shift from chasing external validation to creating internal meaning and alignment. Stop chasing visibility. Start creating meaning. In today’s high-pressure workplace, professionals are depleted from constantly proving themselves to others—yet struggling to find genuine satisfaction in their work. What if the breakthrough isn’t working harder within the system but instead reimagining what success means to you? Stop Chasing, Start Creating reveals the untold story of Tano the tortoise before his famous race with the hare. In this prequel to the beloved Aesop’s fable, we discover that Tano wasn’t always the steady, purposeful creature we know. He once chased visibility, approval, and validation just like the rest of us—until a moment of awakening changed everything. Through Tano’s journey from external pressure to internal clarity, readers discover the crucial difference between chasing meaning and creating it. Grounded in motivation science, this framework shifts professionals from extrinsic motivation (external rewards, recognition, and belonging) to intrinsic motivation (purpose, contribution, and alignment). Perfect for burned-out professionals in healthcare, education, nonprofit management, and other purpose-driven fields, this story-first approach offers the metaphor-rich reflection modern workers crave without feeling like another productivity manual.

A Timeless Fable on Mindset, Resilience, and Meaningful Work

Stop Chasing, Start Creating

We know that we must change ourselves and the world if we want to survive. So why do we cling to old habits and false certainties instead of embracing change now? In New Beginnings, Stefan Klein delves into the most pressing problems facing our world - from the climate crisis to the rapid development of artificial intelligence - and investigates why individuals and societies often resist necessary changes, despite knowing the risks of inaction. Blending scientific insights with vivid storytelling, Klein unpacks the psychological and social forces that keep us stuck, and identifies what he calls the 'seven illusions about progress' that hinder our ability to adapt. Central to his analysis is the idea that transformation is not only necessary but also achievable, provided we understand the mechanisms of change and embrace a mindset that values adaptability. New Beginnings stands out for its ability to make complex global challenges comprehensible and relatable. With his trademark clarity and optimism, Klein inspires belief that necessary change is not only possible but accessible for a sustainable future.

Diversity and Inclusion Research

This book explores how culture quietly shapes our lives, influencing everything from the way we speak and lead to the way we grieve and resolve conflicts. Culture is often overlooked because it’s invisible, yet it influences everything we do. This book reveals that hidden force, demonstrating how cultural codes affect behavior, emotion, and decision-making in various settings.

Through real-world examples ranging from refugee camps to boardrooms, the book argues that understanding culture is no longer optional. It’s essential. With a focus on application, this book equips scholars, researchers, practitioners, and leaders to engage with culture thoughtfully and effectively. Whether they are studying psychology, managing teams, or working in global contexts, readers will find the tools they need to navigate cultural complexity with clarity and respect.

A fascinating exploration of how algorithms penetrate the most intimate aspects of our psychology--from the pioneering expert on psychological targeting.There are more pieces of digital data than there are stars in the universe. This data helps us monitor our planet, decipher our genetic code, and take a deep dive into our psychology.As algorithms become increasingly adept at accessing the human mind, they also become more and more powerful at controlling it, enticing us to buy a certain product or vote for a certain political candidate. Some of us say this technological trend is no big deal. Others consider it one of the greatest threats to humanity. But what if the truth is more nuanced and mind-bending than that?In Mindmasters, Columbia Business School professor Sandra Matz reveals in fascinating detail how big data offers insights into the most intimate aspects of our psyches and how these insights empower an external influence over the choices we make. This can be creepy, manipulative, and downright harmful, with scandals like that of British consulting firm Cambridge Analytica being merely the tip of the iceberg. Yet big data also holds enormous potential to help us live healthier, happier lives--for example, by improving our mental health, encouraging better financial decisions, or enabling us to break out of our echo chambers.With passion and clear-eyed precision, Matz shows us how to manage psychological targeting and redesign the data game.Mindmasters is a riveting look at what our digital footprints reveal about us, how they're being used--for good and for ill--and how we can gain power over the data that defines us.

But what if the truth is more nuanced and mind-bending than that?In Mindmasters, Columbia Business School professor Sandra Matz offers a fascinating insider perspective on the art and data-driven science of psychological targeting. By relating her own personal story of growing up in a small village—where few aspects of life remain truly private—to her groundbreaking research in computational psychology, Matz reveals how Big Data offers insights into the most intimate aspects of our psyche and how these insights empower external influence over the choices we make.Filled with Ted-Talk-like explanations and real-life examples from Matz's research and consulting work, Mindmasters paints a nuanced picture of the power of psychological targeting. Like nosy neighbors, it can be creepy, manipulative, and downright harmful—with scandals like Cambridge Analytica being merely the tip of the iceberg.

A Guide to Neurodiversity, Dignity, and Intersectional Belonging at Work

The Canary Code

"Most masked Autistics have spent a lifetime being told how to perform neurotypically: how to behave, how to carry themselves, what to feel, and how to live. With his previous book, Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price has given them the space and tools to unmask and embrace their neurodiversity. But no matter where you are in the unmasking process, there is still work to be done. Because Autistic people often fear change, struggle to process unfamiliar situations, and have trauma histories that have conditioned them to avoid conflict, they don't always know how to transform their inner revelations into outer realities. They need more than internal healing-they need practical tools to translate acceptance into assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness. Enter Unmasking for Life, which provides the resources to help you advocate for your needs and invent new ways of living, loving, and being that work with your disability rather than against it. You'll learn how to develop five key skills for building authentic relationships and living unmasked: Acceptance of change, loss, and uncertainty; Engagement in productive conflict, discussion, and disagreement; Transgression of unfair rules, demands, and social expectations; Tolerance of distress, disagreement, or being disliked; Creation of new accommodations, relationship structures, and new ways of living. Unmasking for Life will help validate and support you so you can move beyond unmasking your Autism and begin unmasking your world"--

Live your best, unashamedly unmasked Autistic life with this invaluable resource featuring tools for navigating friendships, family, work, and love, from the author of Unmasking Autism. “Unmasking for Life should be read by not only autistic people but their loved ones, to ensure they facilitate a truly fulfilling life.”—Eric Garcia, author of We’re Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation Most masked Autistics have spent a lifetime being told how to perform neurotypically: how to behave, how to carry themselves, what to feel, and how to live. With his previous book, Unmasking Autism, Devon Price, PhD, has given them the space and the tools to unmask and embrace their neurodiversity. But no matter where you are in the unmasking process, there is still work to be done. Unmasking is more than just a personal process of self-acceptance, after all—it also requires figuring out how to move comfortably throughout life building friendships, nurturing family, pursuing love, finding a means of survival, and expressing oneself on one’s own terms. In order to live a brilliantly unashamed Autistic life, you need more than internal healing—you need practical tools of assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness, and solutions to the problems of ableism and inaccessibility. Enter Unmasking for Life, which provides the resources to help you advocate for your needs and invent new ways of living, loving, and being that work with your disability rather than against it. You’ll learn how to develop five key skills for living unmasked in all areas of life: • Acceptance of change, loss, and uncertainty • Engagement in productive conflict, discussion, and disagreement • Transgression of unfair rules, demands, and social expectations • Tolerance of distress, disagreement, or being disliked • Creation of new accommodations, relationship structures, and new ways of living Unmasking for Life will help validate and support you so you can move beyond unmasking your Autism and begin unmasking your world.

Transform your approach to performance by creating systems that adapt to real human behavior. Discover how to foster emotional connections, design for sustainability, and identify patterns that drive success while prioritizing people over metrics.
Emotional contracts-the agreements we make when we're motivated to support each other-are the glue that hold organizations together. Most systems fail not due to poor design, but because they are built for idealized humans who do not exist. In Performance Is Personal, Chad T. Dyar challenges the conventional wisdom that performance systems must be rigid and impersonal. Instead, Dyar emphasizes the importance of understanding actual human behavior-what environments help us thrive, innovate, and contribute meaningfully.
Dyar's approach is refreshingly human-centric, advocating for systems that are flexible and responsive to the complexities of real life. He explores the hidden patterns that can either fuel or fracture success, offering practical strategies for designing better management systems.
For the leader, manager, or consultant, Performance Is Personal comes ready with tools to build systems that serve individuals. Dyar's insights will resonate with anyone who has felt like a cog in a malfunctioning machine, reminding us that the issue lies not within people, but within the system itself. Get ready to embrace a new paradigm that values humanity, fosters growth, and ultimately leads to a more engaged and productive workforce.
