Stats and Curiosities: From Harvard Business Review
Harvard Business Review
Did you know that job candidates who jokingly ask for high salaries receive better offers than those who don't? Or that retail salespeople who mimic the way their customers speak and behave end up selling more? Culled from Harvard Business Review's popular newsletter, The Daily Stat, this book offers a look at insights that both amuse and inform.
