Stretch

Using captivating stories to illustrate research in psychology and management, "Stretch" examines why some people and organizations succeed with so little while others fail with so much. People and organizations approach resources in two different ways: “chasing” and “stretching. ” When chasing, we exhaust ourselves in the pursuit of more. When stretching, we embrace the resources we already have. This frees us to find creative and productive ways to solve problems, innovate, and engage our work and lives more fully. "Stretch" shows why everyone from executives to entrepreneurs, professionals to parents, and athletes to artists perform better with constraints.
