Adam Grant is the author of a new book called Think Again, The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know. He says if you want to open other people's minds you have to open your own mind first. Adam: We live in a world that celebrates those who cling doggedly to their beliefs and castigates those who change their views.
We’re taught that the mark of surefire intelligence is the ability to think and learn. But in his new book, “Think Again,” Adam Grant says that in our turbulent world, there’s a more important skill: the ability to rethink and unlearn. If you can learn how to revise your opinions, check your ego, and admit when you’re wrong, then you’ll be on a path toward wisdom and joy.
