Amy Cuddy Libri

Have you ever faced a nerve-racking challenge and wished for a do-over? Moments that demand authenticity can often leave us feeling phony and powerless. We frequently approach significant hurdles with dread, act with anxiety, and depart with regret. By tapping into our personal power, we can achieve "presence," where we shift our focus from how we are perceived by others to how we perceive ourselves. This revolutionary work by a Harvard professor reveals that we don’t need a grand spiritual journey or a complete transformation to harness presence. Instead, we can make small adjustments in our body language, behavior, and mindset in our daily lives. The author has inspired millions with her TED talk on "power poses" and now delves into the science behind these techniques and others. She offers simple strategies to help us overcome fear in high-pressure situations, perform at our best, and empower others. Richly researched and engaging, this book shares stories of individuals who learned to thrive in stressful moments that once intimidated them. Readers will discover how to face their biggest challenges with confidence and leave them feeling satisfied rather than regretful.

Wie können wir in herausfordernden Momenten stark sein? Situationen wie Vorstellungs- und Streitgespräche oder freies Sprechen vor anderen sind oft mit großen Ängsten verbunden. Harvard-Professorin Amy Cuddy erklärt uns, wie wir auf andere wirken können, wenn wir auf uns selbst Eindruck machen. Dabei gibt sie Einblicke in die Wissenschaft der „Body-mind-Effects“, die verdeutlichen, wie wir in Belastungsmomenten selbstsicher sein und unseren Körper, unsere Gedanken und Bewegungen kontrollieren können.
