Description: "Success is not shared." We have all heard this phrase, and we blindly believe it and others like it. After all, how many times have we seen the most voracious and ambitious triumph over those who stop to think about others? Adam Grant claims the opposite: he maintains that true success is achieved by helping others. The generous, the cooperative, the ones who give more than they take, are the ones who get the respect, the best business relationships, and the fruits of their labor in the long run. In this book, Grant's approach to different ways of giving and receiving not only helps explain various success stories; he also provides new tools to develop negotiation strategies, create outstanding work teams, make the most of our contacts, and much more.
