Bestselling creator Shawn Achor shows how to unlock hidden sources of potential in ourselves and others.

In a world that thrives on competition and individual achievement, we are measuring and pursuing potential all mistaken. By pursuing success in isolation – pushing others away as we push ourselves too hard – we aren’t just limiting our potential, we are becoming more stressed and disconnected than ever.

In his highly anticipated follow-up to The Happiness Advantage, Achor reveals a better approach. Drawing on his work in 50 countries, he shows that success and happiness aren’t competitive sports. Slightly, they depend almost entirely on how well we connect with, relate to, and learn from each and every other.

Just as happiness is contagious, each dimension of human potential – performance, intelligence, creativity, leadership ability and health – is influenced by those around us. So when we help others change into better, we reach new levels of potential, as well. Slightly than fighting over scraps of the pie, we will expand the pie as a substitute.

Small Potential is the limited success we will attain alone. BIG Potential is what we will achieve together. Here, Achor offers five strategies – the SEEDS of Big Potential–for lifting the ceiling on what we will achieve even as returning happiness and meaning to our lives.

The dramatic shifts in how we approach work today demand an equally dramatic shift in our approach to success. Big Potential offers a new path to thriving in the modern world.
