examines how people can drive creative, moral, and organisational
progress-and how leaders can encourage originality in their
organisations. How can we originate new ideas, policies and
practices without risking it all? Adam Grant shows how to improve
the world by championing novel ideas and values that go against the
grain, battling conformity, and bucking outdated traditions. 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. Parents
will learn how to nurture originality in children, and leaders will
discover how to fight groupthink to build cultures that welcome
dissent. Told through dazzling case studies of people going against
the grain, you'll encounter an entrepreneur who pitches the reasons
not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from
three levels below, an analyst who challenged secrecy at the CIA, a
billionaire financial wizard who fires employees who don't
criticize him, and the TV executive who saved Seinfeld from the
cutting room floor. Originals will give you groundbreaking insights
about rejecting conformity and how to change the world.
