The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward(59)

Author:Daniel H. Pink

Acknowledgments

I sure don’t regret having so many amazing people in my corner. Special thanks to:

Jake Morrissey for his wise (and badly needed) structural revisions to the book, for his elegant refinements of my inelegant prose, and for our regular conversations, which were always a bright spot during the dark days of the pandemic.

Team Riverhead—especially Ashley Garland, Lydia Hirt, Geoff Kloske, Jynne Dilling Martin, and Ashley Sutton—for putting their brains and muscle behind all projects Pink.

Rafe Sagalyn, literary agent extraordinaire, for his sage advice on this book and for our twenty-five-year partnership on all books.

The sixteen thousand people who completed the World Regret Survey, the nearly five thousand people whose opinions formed the American Regret Project, and the more than one hundred people who sat for (mostly virtual) interviews about (decidedly real) matters.

Joseph Hinson, Nathan Torrence, and Josh Kennedy, along with the crew at Qualtrics, for building the World Regret Survey and making it powerful and easy to use.

Fred Kofman for jump-starting my stalled mental car with a few jolts of purpose.

Cameron French for once again finding facts, fixing fictions, and being a Swiss Army knife of research skills.

Tanya Maiboroda for once again delivering first-class graphics despite coach-class instructions.

Sophia Pink for her next-level quantitative skills and for unearthing shiny nuggets of insight buried in muddy heaps of data.

Eliza Pink and Saul Pink for their eloquent example of how to finish strong—in college and in high school—during suboptimal conditions.

Jessica Lerner for everything.
