What Makes This Book Great?! Adam Grant's Think Again

For this week's episode we have return guests and friends of the show, Matt McLleland and Daniel Lucas to discuss Adam Grant's brilliant, Think Again.

The discussion on Think Again highlights the book's impact and relevance, emphasizing the importance of rethinking and humility. The book, a New York Times bestseller, encourages readers to approach problems like scientists rather than politicians or salespeople. Key points include the significance of emotional intelligence (EQ) and the balance between confidence and humility in leadership. The conversation also touches on the challenges of overcoming confirmation bias, the value of constructive conflict, and the importance of self-awareness in decision-making. Personal anecdotes and real-world examples illustrate the book's practical applications.
