16. Challenging networks: get yourself some disagreeable givers

Dive into the fascinating world of organisational psychology and self-discovery in our latest podcast episode as we bid farewell to the year. Join Jeanne, our insightful host, who was fortunate enough to attend a captivating keynote speech by none other than Adam Grant, a renowned organisational psychologist and author.

Inspired by Adam’s thought-provoking insights, Jeanne decided to make it the centerpiece of our final podcast for the year. In a nutshell, Adam’s theory revolves around the idea that individuals fall into three categories: the altruistic "givers" who thrive on helping others, and the self-centric "takers" who prioritise their own interests and “matchers”. Notably, Adam further dissects givers into agreeable and disagreeable types, adding an extra layer to our discussion.

With Jeanne we discover how these dynamics shape our professional landscape today. Uncover the layers of self-reflection as we explore the roles we play in our professional lives and, equally important, the significance of the company we keep – whether they're agreeable givers or disagreeable ones.
