«Testen på en uslepen diamant er ikke om den skinner i utgangspunktet, men hvordan den reagerer på varme eller press.»I følge Adam Grant har vi en tendens til å henge oss opp i talent og medfødte evner - vi ser opp til de store stjernene - og glemmer at vi alle kan bli bedre på å forbedre oss.Skjult potensial inneholder nyttige verktøy for å heve egne ambisjoner og forventninger. Grant vever sammen forskning og gode historier - som tar oss fra klasserommet til styrerommet, fra lekeplassen til OL. Framgang har ikke så mye å gjøre med hvor godt du lærer. Vekst handler ikke om genialitet - det handler om ferdigheter du utvikler. Her lærer du om hvordan du kan bli motivert til å nå ditt eget potensial, men også hvordan vi kan skape muligheter for dem som har blitt undervurdert eller oversett.Mange bøker handler om oppskriften bak superstjernenes suksess. Denne beskriver hvordan vi alle kan oppnå noe stort. Det handler ikke om hvor høyt du når, men om hvor langt du har klatret for å komme dit.

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take and Originals examines the critical art of rethinking: learning to question your opinions and open other people's minds, which can position you for excellence at work and wisdom in life Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. With bold ideas and rigorous evidence, Adam Grant investigates how we can embrace the joy of being wrong, harness the advantages of impostor syndrome, bring nuance into charged conversations, and build schools, workplaces, and communities of lifelong learners. Think Again reveals that we don't have to believe all our thoughts or internalize all our emotions. It's an invitation to let go of views that are no longer serving us well and prize mental flexibility, humility, and curiosity over consistency.

We live in a world that's obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn't knock, there are ways to build a door.Hidden Potential offers a new framework for raising aspirations and exceeding expectations. Adam Grant weaves together groundbreaking evidence, surprising insights, and vivid storytelling that takes us from the classroom to the boardroom, the playground to the Olympics, and underground to outer space. He shows that progress depends less on how hard you work than how well you learn. Growth is not about the genius you possess-it's about the character you develop. Grant explores how to build the character skills and motivational structures to realize our own potential, and how to design systems that create opportunities for those who have been underrated and overlooked.Many writers have chronicled the habits of superstars who accomplish great things. This book reveals how anyone can rise to achieve greater things. The true measure of your potential is not the height of the peak you've reached, but how far you've climbed to get there.

Intelligens ses ofta som förmågan att tänka och lära sig, men i en värld som snabbt förändras finns det en annan uppsättning kognitiva färdigheter som kan vara ännu viktigare: förmågan att tänka och lära om. Alltför många av oss föredrar övertygelsens bekvämlighet framför tvivlets obehag. Vi lyssnar på åsikter som får oss att må bra i stället för på idéer som får oss att tänka efter. Vi beter oss som åklagare som försöker bevisa att motståndarsidan har fel i stället för som forskare på jakt efter sanningen.Organisationspsykologen Adam Grant är expert på att öppna andras sinnen och på att få oss att öppna våra egna sinnen. Baserat på vetenskaplig evidens formulerar han nyskapande idéer kring hur vi kan välkomna glädjen över att ha fel, hur man kan nyansera laddade samtal och skapa skolor, arbetsplatser och gemenskaper där man lär livet ut. Öppet sinne visar att vi inte behöver tro på allt vi tänker eller internalisera allt vi känner. Det är en inbjudan till att släppa taget om åsikter som inte längre gagnar oss och värdera mental flexibilitet, ödmjukhet och nyfikenhet högre än korkad tvärsäkerhet. Om kunskap är makt är det visdom att veta vad vi inte vet."Öppet sinne är ett måste att läsa för alla som vill skapa en kultur för lärande och utforskande, vare sig det är hemma, på jobbet eller i skolan. I en alltmer splittrad värld är lärdomarna boken förmedlar viktigare än någonsin." - Bill och Melinda Gates"Adam Grants arbete manar till eftertanke och omprövning på ett sätt som till en början kan verka skrämmande, men som snabbt förvandlas till en spännande upplevelse av självinsikt. Oavsett var man befinner sig på sin professionella eller personliga bana kan alla lära sig något av den här boken" - Daniel Ek, medgrundare och vd på Spotify"Hur man i praktiken ska förbättra andras och sin egen ödmjukhet är ett mysterium för de flesta. Inte för Adam Grant. Aldrig har jag läst en bok som är så användbar för att träna ett öppet sinne. Från och med idag är denna bok obligatorisk läsning för alla på Gapminder." - Ola Rosling, medgrundare av Gapminder och medförfattare till Factfulness"Adam Grant anser att det går att lära sig att ha ett öppet sinne. Ingen skulle kunna lära ut denna enormt värdefulla färdighet bättre än han gör i sin fantastiska bok. Insikterna i denna briljanta bok kommer garanterat att få dig att ompröva dina åsikter och viktigaste beslut." - Daniel Kahneman, vinnare av Ekonomipriset till Alfred Nobels minne och författare till Tänka, snabbt och långsamt

नये विचार होना एक बात है, और उन्हें पूरा करना अलग बात है। अपनी पीढ़ी के सबसे उत्तेजक अग्रणी विचारकों में से एक एडम ग्रांट, बताते हैं कि कैसे लोग अच्छे विचारों को पहचान सकते हैं और मौन के बजाय अपनी आवाज को बुलंद कर सकते हैं, अभिभावक कैसे बच्चों को रचनात्मक बना सकते हैं और नेतृत्वकर्ता कैसे भेड़चाल से लड़ते हुए नये विचारों, नई खोज को प्रोत्साहित करने वाली संस्कृति को विकसित कर सकते हैं। उल्लेखनीय अध्ययनों और कारोबार, राजनीति, खेल और मनोरंजन की दुनिया से जुड़ी कहानियों का इस्तेमाल करके ग्रांट बताते हैं कि आश्चर्यजनक सच्चाई यह है कि निराले विचार रखने वाले लोग ठीक हमारी तरह ही होते हैं। वह भी कामों को टालते हैं। संदेह और भय से वह भी जूझते हैं। उन्हें भी बुरे और ग़लत विचार आते हैं। जो बात उन्हें आम व्यक्ति से अलग बनाती है वह यह है कि वह फिर भी कदम उठाकर आगे बढ़ते हैं। यह किताब हमें अनूठी अंतरंग जानकारी देती है कि हम सब कैसे अपने सर्वश्रेष्ठ विचारों पर महारत हासिल करके सफल बन सकते हैं।

వేగంగా మారుతున్న ప్రపంచంలో బాగా ఆలోచించగలిగే నైపుణ్యం అనేది వరం. ఎప్పుడూ ఒక అభిప్రాయానికి, లేదా ఒక ఆలోచనకు కట్టుబడకూడదు, పునరాలోచించుకోవటానికి సిద్ధపడాలి అని ఈ పుస్తకం మనకు చెబుతుంది. చాలా మంది తమకు అసౌకర్యం కలిగించే ఆలోచనలు చేయటానికి భయపడతారు. తమ విశ్వాసాలను,అభిప్రాయాలతో ఏకీభవించని వాళ్లకు దూరంగా మసలుతారు. ఒక పనిని తమకు అలవాటయిన పద్ధతిలో యాంత్రికంగా చేసుకుపోతారు. కొత్తగా ప్రయత్నించటానికి సందేహిస్తారు. ఒక పనిని నేర్చుకునే అవకాశంగా కాకుండా, మన అహంకారానికి ముప్పుగా భావిస్తాం. దానితో నమ్మకాలు అనేవి పెళుసుగా తయారవుతాయి. కొత్తగా నేర్చుకోవటం ఆగిపోతుంది. నిరంతరం మన అభిప్రాయాలను సమర్థించుకోవటానికి.. ఓ మత ప్రభోధకునిలా, ఓ న్యాయవాదిగా, ఓ రాజకీయవేత్తగా అవతారమెత్తుతాం. శాస్త్రవేత్తలా వ్యవహరించటానికి మాత్రం ఇష్టపడం. తమకు లభించే కొత్త దత్తాంశాల ఆధారంగా శాస్త్రవేత్తలు తమ అభిప్రాయాలను మార్చుకుంటారు. తాము పొరపాటు అవకాశం ఉందనే వారి స్వభావం.. పునరాలోచనకు వారిని సిద్ధం చేస్తుంది. మీరు కూడా మీ వృత్తివ్యాపారాల్లో విజయం సాధించదలుచుకుంటే పునరాలోచన అన్న కళలో రాణించాలి. ఆ విద్య అలవడటానికి ఈ పుస్తకం మీరు తప్పక చదవితీరవలసిందే

"Success is not shared." We have all heard this phrase, and we blindly believe it and others like it. After all, how many times have we seen the most voracious and ambitious triumph over those who stop to think about others? Adam Grant claims the opposite: he maintains that true success is achieved by helping others. The generous, the cooperative, the ones who give more than they take, are the ones who get the respect, the best business relationships, and the fruits of their labor in the long run. In this book, Grant's approach to different ways of giving and receiving not only helps explain various success stories; he also provides new tools to develop negotiation strategies, create outstanding work teams, make the most of our contacts, and much more.

New York Timesi bestseller.Mida aeg edasi, seda kriitilisemaks muutub inimkonna võime ümber mõelda ja õpitut unustada, et turbulentses, pidevalt muutuvas maailmas hakkama saada. Iganenud veendumused aheldavad meid köidikusse ning lahenduseks ei ole aeglasem mõtlemine, vaid kiirem järelemõtlemine, kinnitab organisatsioonipsühholoog Adam Grant. Julgete ideede ja rangete tõendite abil uurib ta oma järjekordses menukis "Järelemõtlemise kunst", kuidas võtta omaks eksimise rõõmu.Enamik meist on uhked oma teadmiste ja asjatundlikkuse üle, jäädes neile vankumatult truuks. Osalt on selle põhjuseks kognitiivne laiskus, ütleb Grant: mugavam on kuulata arvamusi, mis tekitavad meis hea tunde, mitte aga ideid, mis sunnivad tõsiselt järele mõtlema. Naerame nende üle, kalle arvutis jookseb jätkuvalt Windows 95, hoides samas ise kramplikult kinni seisukohtadest, mille võtsime omaks aastal 1995.Me ei mõtle piisavalt tihti teadlaste kombel, toob Grant välja põhjuse, miks kipume jääma kinni mõttemustritesse, mis meid enam ei teeni. See tähendab rohkemat kui lihtsalt avatud meeltega reageerimist. See tähendab aktiivset avatust, mis suisa nõuab, et otsiksime põhjuseid, miks meil ei pruugi õigus olla. Just teadlase kombel mõtlemine aitab meil leida uusi lahendusi vanadele probleemidele ja tuletada meelde vanu lahendusi uutele.Tarkuse tunnuseks on teadmine, millal on aeg kõige kallimaks peetud tööriistad ja kõige armsamad osad oma identiteedist maha jätta. Ja kes oleks parem seda õpetama kui Adam Grant - mees, kelle geniaalsust on hinnatud sedavõrd kõrgelt, et ta on arvatud juhtimiskategoorias maailma kümne kõige mõjukama mõtleja hulka.

I denne bestselgeren tar Adam Grant for seg den krevende kunsten å stille seg kritisk til egne meninger, være mer fordomsfri overfor andres og å lære seg å åpne andres sinn.

Vi lytter til meninger som får oss til å føle oss bra, og ikke til ideer som tvinger oss til å tenke på nye måter. Resultatet er at tenkningen vår stivner lenge før beina våre. Her er intelligens ingen kur, men snarere en forbannelse: Forskning viser at jo smartere man er, desto vanskeligere er det å justere egne overbevisninger. Grant mener vi bør omfavne gleden ved å ta feil. «Tenk om igjen» er en invitasjon til å gi slipp på synspunkter som ikke tjener oss godt. Kunnskap er kanskje makt, men det ligger stor kraft i å vite hva man ikke vet. «I en verden full av aggressiv skråsikkerhet er Adam Grants siste bok en befriende oppfordring til ydmykhet og åpne sinn. "Tenk om igjen" gir kraftfulle argumenter for å revurdere det vi allerede vet. Denne lærdommen er ikke bare nyttig, den kan være livsviktig». Financial Times «Helt briljant!» Daniel Kahneman

Denne bog handler om værdien forbundet med at gentænke og aflære. Den amerikanske psykolog og bestsellerforfatter Adam Grant undersøger gentænkningens svære kunst: at lære at forholde sig skeptisk til sine egne meninger og have et mere åbent sind over for andres. Vi opfatter normalt intelligens som evnen til at tænke og lære, men i vores hastigt omskiftelige verden har evnen til at gentænke og aflære måske endnu større betydning. Alt for mange af os foretrækker i dagligdagen bekvemmeligheden og trygheden forbundet med at have faste overbevisninger frem for ubehaget forbundet med at tvivle. Vi opfatter uenighed som en trussel mod vores ego i stedet for en mulighed for at lære. Vi omgiver os med personer, som er enige i vores konklusioner, når vi i virkeligheden burde foretrække dem, der udfordrer vores tankeprocesser. Den globale pandemi har tvunget os alle sammen til at revurdere vores antagelser om sundhed og sikkerhed; adskillige eksempler på politibrutalitet har udfordret de fleste af os i forhold til vores personlige ansvar for at bekæmpe racisme; og mange mennesker fra hele det politiske spektrum har mobiliseret deres egne synspunkter og værdier og/eller desperat forsøgt at overtale andre til at ændre deres. Intelligens er ikke nogen kur – den kan i virkeligheden være en forbandelse: Forskningen viser, at jo mere intelligent man er, jo sværere er det for en at opdatere sine overbevisninger. I Tænk igen opfordrer Adam Grant os ved hjælp af dristige idéer og stringent evidens til at slippe de synspunkter, der ikke længere gavner os, og til at forankre vores identitet i fleksibilitet snarere end i tåbelig konsistens. Han viser bl.a., hvordan en førende international debattør vinder diskussioner, hvordan en sort musiker overtaler hvide racister til at opgive hadet, hvordan en vaccinehvisker overtaler vaccine-modstandere til at få vaccineret deres børn, og hvordan han selv har lokket fans af Yankees til at heppe på Red Sox.

Tiedätkö olevasi oikeassa? Mistä tiedät sen? Mietipä uudestaan!Mieti vielä haastaa lukijan harkitsemaan uudelleen ja kehittämään henkistä joustavuutta. Nopeasti muuttuvassa maailmassa olennaista on kyky ajatella uudella tavalla. Päästämällä irti oikeassa olemisen pakosta ja kiveen hakatuista totuuksista meille avautuu ennennäkemättömiä ideoita. Ratkaisu saattaa piillä siinä, mitä emme vielä tiedä.Kirjan opeilla lisäämme viisautta elämäämme sekä ratkomme työelämän, koulumaailman tai politiikan haasteita. Kirja ohjaa valitsemaan rohkeuden ja epävarmuuden mukavuudenhalun sijaan. Viisautta on luopua kaikesta, mikä ei enää palvele - oli sitten kyse mielipiteistä, työurasta tai identiteetistä.Rohkeilla ideoilla ja täsmällisillä todisteilla Adam Grant opastaa, kuinka voimme omaksua väärässä olemisen ilon, hyödyntää huijarisyndrooman yllättäviä etuja ja keskustella rakentavasti vaikeista aiheista sekä oppia muilta lukkiutumatta omiin totuuksiimme. Opimme myös kannustamaan muita uudistamaan omaa ajatteluaan. Kirjan lopussa kirjoittaja antaa lisäksi kolmekymmentä parasta käytännön ohjettaan uudelleen ajattelemisen kehittämiseen.Adam Grant on psykologi, The New York Timesin parhaiten myyvä kirjoittaja, Whartonin arvostettu professori ja Harvardin yliopiston kasvatti. Hän lukeutuu maailman 25 vaikutusvaltaisimman johtamisajattelijan joukkoon ja hän on saanut arvostettuja tieteellisiä palkintoja American Psychological Associationilta sekä National Science Foundationilta.

#1 New York Times Bestseller "THIS. This is the right book for right now. Yes, learning requires focus. But, unlearning and relearning requires much more--it requires choosing courage over comfort. In Think Again, Adam Grant weaves together research and storytelling to help us build the intellectual and emotional muscle we need to stay curious enough about the world to actually change it. I've never felt so hopeful about what I don't know."--Bren Brown, Ph.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dare to Lead The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Originals, Give and Take, and the forthcoming Hidden Potential examines the critical art of rethinking: learning to question your opinions and open other people's minds, which can position you for excellence at work and wisdom in life Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives, too many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn. We surround ourselves with people who agree with our conclusions, when we should be gravitating toward those who challenge our thought process. The result is that our beliefs get brittle long before our bones. We think too much like preachers defending our sacred beliefs, prosecutors proving the other side wrong, and politicians campaigning for approval--and too little like scientists searching for truth. Intelligence is no cure, and it can even be a curse: being good at thinking can make us worse at rethinking. The brighter we are, the blinder to our own limitations we can become. Organizational psychologist Adam Grant is an expert on opening other people's minds--and our own. As Wharton's top-rated professor and the bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take, he makes it one of his guiding principles to argue like he's right but listen like he's wrong. With bold ideas and rigorous evidence, he investigates how we can embrace the joy of being wrong, bring nuance to charged conversations, and build schools, workplaces, and communities of lifelong learners. You'll learn how an international debate champion wins arguments, a Black musician persuades white supremacists to abandon hate, a vaccine whisperer convinces concerned parents to immunize their children, and Adam has coaxed Yankees fans to root for the Red Sox. Think Again reveals that we don't have to believe everything we think or internalize everything we feel. It's an invitation to let go of views that are no longer serving us well and prize mental flexibility over foolish consistency. If knowledge is power, knowing what we don't know is wisdom.
