The #1 New York Times bestseller that examines how people can champion new ideas—and how leaders can fight groupthink, from the author of Give and Take
“Reading Originals made me feel like I was seated across from Adam Grant at a dinner party, as one of my favorite thinkers thrilled me with his insights and his wonderfully new take on the world.” —Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers and The Tipping Point
“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becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions.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.
网友对Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World的评论
书很好，已经读了快一半了，观点很特别也确实如是存在，没看过中文版的，不过相信英文原版的更有有趣，比如书中曾有一句：“U gotta kiss a lot of frogs,before u find a prince”
看了之后里面的一些观点很让人受启发，很好的一本书。
It's hard to miss Grant these days, and since I have enjoyed his TV appearances (CNBC) and short-form writing (Medium), I thought I would give Originals a spin. It was a great read! While it generally follows today's common business-book format of a chapter-by-chapter template, of starting with a premise, support with numerous anecdotes, and conclude. I very much enjoyed Grant's twist on this, though - he's big on previewing the anecdotes (from the old "tell 'em what you're going to tell 'em" approach), and then ultimately concluding something different than what the reader (me at least) was expecting. Highly recommended!!!
