Work has to suck, you have to be selfish to get ahead, and you can’t become more original, these are just some of the myths that Adam Grant busts and replaces with an upgraded way to see the world.

He has been named one of the world’s 10 most influential management thinkers and one of Fortune’s 40 under 40.
