ADAM GRANT: the magic of learning

This episode of "Lives Well Lived" interviews organizational psychologist Adam Grant about maximizing potential and achieving success. The discussion covers Grant's unique approach to self-assessment (using a 0-10 rating system for feedback), building a "challenge network" of critical colleagues, and managing the pressures of public speaking, particularly TED Talks. Grant also shares insights from psychological research on attention spans and the importance of intellectual humility, advocating for discarding outdated beliefs and embracing self-correction. Listeners gain actionable advice on seeking honest feedback, prioritizing meaning over happiness, and navigating disagreements with friends and colleagues over differing opinions.
