The #1 New York Times bestseller that examines how people can
champion new ideas in their careers and everyday life-and how
leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Think Again and
co-author of Option B "Filled with fresh insights on a broad array
of topics that are important to our personal and professional
lives."-The New York Times DealBook "Originals is one of the most
important and captivating books I have ever read, full of
surprising and powerful ideas. It will not only change the way you
see the world; it might just change the way you live your life. And
it could very well inspire you to change your world." -Sheryl
Sandberg, COO of Facebook and author of Lean In With Give and Take,
Adam Grant not only introduced a landmark new paradigm for success
but also established himself as one of his generation's most
compelling and provocative thought leaders. In Originals he again
addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the
perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas
and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck
outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and
practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and
stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment,
Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without
getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right
time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers
can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build
cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who
pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a
woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below,
an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a
billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to
criticize him, and a TV executive who didn't even work in comedy
but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set
of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving
the status quo.
