Book SynopsisLinda Kaplan Thaler and Robin Koval have moved to the top of the advertising industry by following a simple but powerful philosophy: it pays to be nice.

In The Power of Nice, through their own experiences and the stories of other people and businesses, they demonstrate why, contrary to conventional wisdom, nice people finish first.
The Power of Nice shows that ''nice'' companies have lower employee turnover, lower recruitment costs and higher productivity. Nice people live longer, are healthier and make more money. In today''s interconnected word, companies and people with a reputation for cooperation and fair play forge the kind of relationships that lead to bigger and better opportunities, both in business and in life.
But being nice doesn''t mean being a push-over. In fact, nice may be the toughest four-letter word you''ll ever encoun
Trade Review
This little book will show you why women should run most corporations in America and maybe the entire country. Reading Nice will improve just about everything in your life and that's a promise * James Patterson *
For my money, I would always rather make a deal with people I like who treat me well. If you want to discover the surprising power of nice, read this book. Memorise it. Use it. You'll be glad you did. * Donald Trump *
Though a lively read, this is not a cutesy little bob-bon of a book. Well thought-out and crisply presented, it offers key principles, case studies and exercises to help make niceness habitual. * Publishers Weekly *
