When

Beschreibung

Timing is everything. Whether you are making high-stakes business decisions or personal choices, you must decide not only what to do, but when to do it. Act too early or too late, and the results can be disappointing - or even disastrous. But how can you know when the time is right? Timing can be learned. In When, timing expert Stuart Albert presents a fresh, counterintuitive, and above all practical approach to dealing with timing issues. Albert shows that good timing is not just a matter of luck, intuition, or past experience-all of which may be unreliable - but requires skill. When teaches the tools and methods needed to build and use that skill, equipping you to choose and use timing to your (competitive) advantage. At the heart of the book is Albert's timing analysis method, based on a decades-long investigation of more than 2,000 timing issues and errors. When examines in depth the six key elements of timing analysis: Sequence, Temporal Punctuation, Interval/Duration, Rate, Shape, and Polyphony, and how they fit together in timing design. Examples from the worlds of business, warfare, medicine, sports, entertainment, and the arts bring those elements to life, clearly illustrating how to find timing patterns and craft a subtle, sophisticated, specific - and effective - course of action, whether in business or in everyday life. Engaging and pragmatic, When will show you that, regardless of that work you do or the life you live, time can be on your side.
