Give and Take

What if the key to success wasn't competition… but contribution?

In this groundbreaking bestseller, Wharton professor and top-rated organizational psychologist Adam Grant reveals a powerful new approach to success — one based on giving, not taking. Through cutting-edge research, real-world case studies, and unforgettable storytelling, Give and Take uncovers how generosity, collaboration, and empathy are actually the most efficient tools to build influence, win negotiations, lead effectively, and thrive in any career.

Whether you're a startup founder, corporate leader, educator, or creative, Grant introduces you to three interaction styles — Givers, Takers, and Matchers — and shows how these patterns shape your professional life and long-term results.

Far from being a naive ideal, being a Giver turns out to be the most sustainable path to impact and prosperity. But only when done right.
