Give and Take

A Revolutionary Approach to Success

By: Adam Grant

Narrated by: Brian Keith Lewis

A groundbreaking look at why our interactions with others hold the key to success, from the New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential, Think Again, and Originals

For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success: passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But in today’s dramatically reconfigured world, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. In Give and Take, Adam Grant, an award-winning researcher and Wharton’s highest-rated professor, examines the surprising forces that shape why some people rise to the top of the success ladder while others sink to the bottom. Praised by social scientists, business theorists, and corporate leaders, Give and Take opens up an approach to work, interactions, and productivity that is nothing short of revolutionary.

Very good but has a lot of filler

I liked the main message of this book but it feels like I am being sold a magic solution to become successful wich isn't the case.
I recommend only to read half of this book.

The struggle is real

What made the experience of listening to Give and Take the most enjoyable?

It made me see that I fight within myself to get things done. It is not helpful for those around me or myself. So, for me to move forward, I must be willing to give in and let them take and then we can work together.

Be a giver
