Soundview Executive Book Summaries to Host Webinar with Adam Grant
Soundview Executive Book Summaries will host an interactive webinar on June 27th with best-selling author Adam Grant, to discuss the concepts in his latest book, Give and Take.
Philadelphia, PA, June 19, 2013 --(PR.com)-- In this Soundview Live webinar, A Revolutionary Approach to Success, Adam Grant examines the surprising forces that shape why some people rise to the top of the success ladder while others sink to the bottom. The findings from Grant’s book Give and Take will change your fundamental ideas about how to succeed—at work and in life. For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success: passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But in today’s dramatically reconfigured world, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. Grant illuminates what effective networking, collaboration, influence, negotiation, and leadership skills have in common.
