  • Adam Grant is Wharton’s top-rated professor and author of two New York Times bestselling books-ORIGINALS: How Non-Conformists Move the World and GIVE AND TAKE: A Revolutionary Approach to Success.
    Three strategies Adam uses to get closer to excellence are:
    1) Have a challenge network of people who assess your work
    2) Switch your mindset to how can I improve myself? Not prove myself
    3) Stop giving yourself a second score, start asking how can I best respond to the first score!
    Adam has been Wharton’s top-rated professor for 7 straight years. As an organizational psychologist, he is a leading expert on how we can find motivation and meaning, rethink assumptions, and live more generous and creative lives. He has been recognized as one of the world’s 10 most influential management thinkers and Fortune’s 40 under 40.
    ​He is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of 5 books that have sold millions of copies and been translated into 45 languages: Think Again, Give and Take, Originals, Option B, and Power Moves. His books have been named among the year’s best by Amazon, Apple, the Financial Times, and the Wall Street Journal. His viral piece on languishing was the most-read New York Times article of 2021 and the most-saved article across all platforms.
    Adam hosts WorkLife, a chart-topping TED original podcast. His TED talks on languishing, original thinkers, and givers and takers have been viewed more than 30 million times. He has received a standing ovation at TED and was voted the audience’s favorite speaker at The Nantucket Project. His speaking and consulting clients include Google, the NBA, Bridgewater, and the Gates Foundation. He writes on work and psychology for the New York Times, has served on the Defense Innovation Board at the Pentagon, has been honored as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum, and has appeared on Billions.

    What a wonderful watch. I can remember one of my first Human Factors courses I delivered for Pilots. 5 mins in, a pilot put his had up and said “Andy, no disrespect, but I have 30 years flying experience, what can you possibly teach me?”.
    I’d heard something years earlier, so replied; “have you got 30yrs flying experience or 1yrs flying experience repeated 30 times?”.
    The chat over lunch was very interesting. I think he got it and was willing to listen and buy into the course. It was about them - not me. Make your audience feel like they’re the most important people in the room. Acknowledge their experience, their authority, their knowledge, then you don’t become a threat to them - as they’re now the audience, not in their often assigned authority - so it can feel uncomfortable for them. 👍

    Truly LOVED this episode. SO many notes and so many considerations. The Steve Parish episode brought me here after watching that one and there is so much to consider in this episode. I love how this interlinks with Matthew Syed, Gregg Hoffman and Brent Hoberman particularly.

    Picked on the wrong guy Adam when you and Chris tried to railroad Coleman.
