- Starbucks: Starbucks used the power of the environment to improve its customer experience.

- Hewlett-Packard: Hewlett-Packard used the principle of habit stacking to increase employee engagement. They created a program called “HP Way,” which encouraged employees to develop a new habit every month. This led to an increase in productivity, increased employee satisfaction, and a decrease in the turnover rate.
- Drew Houston: The founder of Dropbox, Drew Houston, used the concept of habit tracking to improve his productivity. He started by tracking his time spent on tasks and discovered that he was wasting a lot of time on unimportant tasks.
