Couldn't load pickup availability
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.

Great.
This is a great self-help book. Anyone interested in getting head in work or in life should read it shows the power of generosity and giving Adam Grant is a brilliant writer and each chapter is well researched. Some of the best parts of the book are when Adam talks about his own experiences in sales. The book provides tips on how to be a better giver without becoming a doormat.
I want to thank Adam Grant for this book. It really helps the reader understand the category into which he falls, the potential and limits of operating in a given category, and how to maximize the upside potential of a giving mindset while taking smart measures to avoid its pitfalls. Real examples from professionals in a variety of walks of life and throughout the 20th and 21st century helped drive the points home. Well written, and very helpful.
