Surprise

Embrace the Unpredictable and Engineer the Unexpected

By: Tania Luna,LeeAnn Renninger,LeeAnn Renninger, PhD

The concept of surprise has changed a lot in the past 100,000 years or so. Humanity's ancient ancestors didn't like surprises because they usually involved hungry animals and lots of screaming. Today, "surprise!" is something your friends shout at your birthday party - but you may still respond the way your prehistoric forebears shrank from a saber-tooth tiger. According to consultants Tania Luna and LeeAnn Renninger, you are hardwired to fear the unexpected. That creates problems in today's environment of nonstop change and novelty. Luna and Renninger show you how to develop the resilience, agility and creativity to deal with uncertainty and how to enrich your life by creating surprise for others. This breezy, light exploration offers compelling insights into humankind's intense relationship with mystery and uncertainty. getAbstract recommends its new tools for delighting your customers and loved ones.

Surprise

Embrace the Unpredictable and Engineer the Unexpected

By: Tania Luna,LeeAnn Renninger, PhD

Surprise: Embrace the Unpredictable and Engineer the Unexpected is a fascinating look at how we can handle and harness surprise in our work, relationships, and everyday lives. Pop Quiz! Do you prefer when: A) Things go according to plan? B) When the unexpected happens? Most of us pick control and predictability. Yet research reveals a counterintuitive truth: surprise is the key that unlocks growth, innovation, and connection. It is also the secret ingredient in our best memories. Through colorful narratives and compelling scientific findings, authors Tania Luna and Dr. LeeAnn Renninger shine a light on the world's least understood and most intriguing emotion. They reveal how shifting our perception of surprise lets us thrive in the face of uncertainty. And they show us how surprise acts as a shortcut that turns a typical product into a meaningful experience, a good idea into a viral one, awkward small talk into engaging conversation, and daily life into an adventure.
