Offering a new paradigm for our relationships with colleagues, clients, and competitors, Give and Take demolishes the “me-first” worldview and shows that the best way to get to the top is to focus not on your solo journey but on bringing others with you. In this book talk, Adam Grant presented an approach to work, team building, productivity, and profitability that is nothing short of revolutionary.

ADAM GRANT is the youngest tenured professor and single highest-rated teacher at Wharton Business School. He has been honored as one of BusinessWeek’s favorite professors and one of the world’s top 40 business professors under 40, received numerous awards and extensive media coverage for his research, and consulted and presented for organizations including Google, the NFL, IBM, Merck, the World Economic Forum, the United Nations, and the U.S. Army and Navy. He is a former record-setting advertising director, junior Olympic springboard diver, and professional magician.
