New Episode: ADAM GRANT OPTION B

New Episode: ADAM GRANT OPTION B

Completing our Adam Grant series, Mike and Mark explore 'Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy', and the ways in which we can cultivate resilience.

Everyone experiences some form of Option B. We all deal with loss: jobs lost, loves lost, lives lost. The question is not whether these things will happen but how we face them when they do. Thoughtful, honest, revealing and warm, Option B weaves Sandberg’s experiences coping with adversity with new findings from Adam Grant and other social scientists. The book features stories of people who recovered from personal and professional hardship, including illness, injury, divorce, job loss, sexual assault and imprisonment. These people did more than recover—many of them became stronger.

Continuing our series on Adam Grant, Mike and Mark reach into Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World to uncover what does it take to be a truly original thinker.

Originals is about how to champion new ideas and fight groupthink. 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.
