How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference

Add book

Gladwell gives people language for their crazy connector, maven, and salesman friends.

I like that.

I gave this book a try ... after a few chapters, there was still no aww moment so I dropped it. I'll likely pick it up again some day,

While the topic was of some interest to me as someone who used to work in the sales business, I finished the book feeling as though I hadn't learned much. It all seemed fairly obvious, unfortunately. The author uses a number of somewhat interesting stories/trivia to support his rather simple thesis. Read something else.
