Like a lot of Adam Grant’s book, it wasn’t really breaking a lot of new ground. There was a chapter that was basically about effective teaming, that was definitely the most beneficial chapter.
Interesting points from Dr. Grant. In particular, the sections on raising “original” children were notable and I expect to reference these in the future if I ever have a child of my own!
The book includes actionable advice and directly referenced research to support claims. Or course, Edwin Land of Polaroid makes an appearance (a favorite in pop psych / management / leadership books). More original references (pun intended) also included.
