Think again. The power of knowledge of ignorance. Adam Grant
Intelligence is usually considered as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world there is another set of cognitive skills that can be more important: the ability to rethink and retrain. In everyday life, too many of us prefer the comfort of beliefs of the inconvenience of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, and not to the ideas calling to think. We consider disagreements as a threat to our ego, and not as an opportunity to study. We surround ourselves people who agree with our conclusions, while we should gravitate towards those who challe up our mental process.
If knowledge is power, then knowledge of what we do not know is - this wisdom. Professor Adam Grant is sure of this. His new book will help:
- to master the skill that Ray Dalio calls the key in his “principles”- the ability to look at reality without prejudice.
- open an internal scientist: infinitely curious , configured skeptical, to the best of confident. Learn to change your eyes on things.
- to form substantial, not interpersonal conflicts, to lead your team or group to find a solution.
- to push other people to review the established vision and thought in the framework of a scientific approach.
- create a community of people who learn new things throughout their lives.
about all this, Adam Grant tells fascinatingly, with humor and examples from various Areas, with brilliantly selected illustrations and graphs that contribute to reading lightness.
The book of Adam Grant shows that we do not need to believe everything we think, or to absorb everything we feel. This is an invitation to abandon the views that no longer serve us, and value mental flexibility above stupid sequence.
