Passionomics : The Most Overlooked Phenomenon in Business and How to Harness It

Omtale

A groundbreaking new framework for business leaders and policymakers In Passionomics, Raja Rajamannar introduces an original intellectual framework that equips CEOs, CMOs, strategists, boards, and policymakers with a new lens for driving growth, innovation, and enduring customer loyalty. Where behavioral economics examines how individuals make decisions, Passionomics reveals how collective passion — the synchronized intensity of millions of people acting in concert — moves markets, reshapes industries, and creates extraordinary value for the organizations and institutions that learn to harness it. Rajamannar makes the case through vivid, real-world phenomena every leader recognizes but few have truly decoded: the economic waves generated by a Taylor Swift tour, the industry-wide momentum of Formula 1, the societal mobilization of the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games. These are not anecdotes. They are windows into a dynamic that, once understood, becomes a deliberate strategic advantage — one that transforms how companies build brands, design products, earn loyalty, and compete, and how policymakers shape economies, cities, and public life. Business leaders and policymakers will discover: A new strategic framework — Passionomics — that explains how collective intensity operates as a distinct and powerful dynamic separate from individual behaviorWhy passion is a renewable source of innovation, loyalty, and growth — and why the organizations and institutions that ignore it are leaving extraordinary value on the tableHow to recognize, cultivate, and harness collective passion inside organizations, brands, entire categories, and public institutionsCase studies from sports, entertainment, culture, and commerce that reveal the architecture of passion-driven growthA practical lens for boards, CEOs, CMOs, senior leaders, and policymakers who want to move beyond conventional playbooks and unlock step-change performance Passionomics is essential reading for business leaders and policymakers who sense that something critical is missing from the standard strategic toolkit — and who want a rigorous, original framework for building companies, brands, institutions, and economies that win in ways others cannot replicate.
