Charles Duhigg is a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter for The New York Times and the author of The Power of Habit. He is a winner of the National Academies of Sciences, National Journalism, and George Polk awards. A graduate of Harvard Business School and Yale College, he lives in Brooklyn with his wife and two children.
This is not just a riveting read about how to understand others
better. It’s also a revealing look at how to be understood. Charles
Duhigg delivers a winning combination of stories, studies, and
guidance that might well transform the worst communicators you know
into some of the best.

and Hidden Potential*
Our personal and professional success depend upon our ability to
understand and be understood, and yet, we typically leave this up
to intuition. In Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg goes through a
mountain of research — and some riveting stories — and unearths
practical tactics to show that anyone can become a more effective
listener, speaker, and even social media poster.

Gene*
Charles Duhigg does it again, with a book we all need to read.
Using his unique mix of stories and science, he gives us
Supercommunicators, a guide to better conversation and deeper human
connection. If you want to improve your communication skills at
work and in life, this book is the place the start.
*Arthur C. Brooks, Professor, Harvard Kennedy School and Harvard
Business School, and #1 New York Times bestselling author of FROM
STRENGTH TO STRENGTH and co-author (with Oprah Winfrey) of BUILD
THE LIFE YOU WANT*
This is one of those books that stays with you for days after
reading it . . . What makes us happiest in life is the quality of
our connections and the relationships we forge . . . and that might
just start with being able to understand what someone else is
really trying to say. For as Duhigg himself points out, the right
conversation at the right moment can change everything.
*Daily Mail*
Duhigg offers diligently sourced evidence and opinion from
psychologists and neuroscientists. He also knows how to tell a
story. As he did in his successful book The Power of Habit, he
weaves in inspiring anecdotes — tales of so-called
supercommunicators . . . a thoughtful and entertaining book. I even
think it could make me a slightly better human.
