The Moment of Clarity demonstrates the significant impact and value that businesses create when they actively build strategies around the complexity of human behavior. This book is essential reading for any leader struggling to find a solid path forward in a rocky and uncertain environment."

Michael Canning, CEO, Duke Corporate Education
Madsbjerg and Rasmussen bring fresh perspective by applying a human lens to solve business challenges. Drawing on the social sciences, they uncover elusive insights needed for navigating our increasingly complex world. A great readI highly recommend it."

Sheila Heen, coauthor, Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most
Buried under spreadsheets, market analyses, and big data lies the essence of the human experience that your product or service is built on. The Moment of Clarity shows us how easily this gets lost amid the hubbub of today's business wisdom," and how stopping to deeply understand the humanity at the heart of it all has brought some of the world's biggest companies back from the brink. Ignore Madsbjerg and Rasmussen's groundbreaking insight at your peril."

Taylor Carman, Professor of Philosophy, Barnard College
The Moment of Clarity offers a brilliant and much-needed critique of the disastrous consequences of trading embodied intuitive understanding for abstract technical manipulation, especially for companies whose success depends on their sensitivity and responsiveness to the experiences, the concerns, the livesin short, the worldsof their customers. Madsbjerg and Rasmussen shine a light on the persistent but stultifying habits of corporate thinking that stand in the way of genuine imagination and insight into what it means to be human."
