About this listen
Adam Grant, the New York Times best-selling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B, went to the World Economic Forum in Davos to find out what the world’s most visionary and influential leaders had to say about power—and its transformative role in our society.
What he learned there may surprise you.
Grant delivers a heady mix of captivating interviews, compelling data, and his unmistakably incisive and actionable analysis, to give us a crash course in power that both inspires and instructs from the front lines. In interviews with two dozen CEOs, start-up founders, top scientists, and thought leaders—including top executives at Google, GM, Slack, and Goldman Sachs, the CEO of the Gates Foundation, and NASA’s former chief scientist—he shares hard-earned insights on how to succeed in this new era of hyper-linked power. He also explores how power is reshaping everything from the workforce, to the rise of women in the office, to the influence of scientists on policy.
As pillars of traditional power are transformed by networks of informed citizens, the use of power is increasingly seen as a force for good in the world, from one that was once coveted to one that demands to be shared.

Sort of a brief greatest hits package
I see this book as a collage of Adam Grant topics that he talks about in his podcasts. If you like his podcasts then you will like this book

Another smash hit by the Wharton Professor
Adam Grant has a way with words. He is able to convey his ideas through vivid imagery and suspenseful story telling. He presents amazing leaders, stories and ideas in such a nonchalant way then surprises you by revealing the person or event behind the story.
Take a listen. This audible is how I imagine audiobooks should be produced. Adam takes advantage of the medium and writes this Audiobook for the Audio.

Very lazy, not a book
This is more of a podcast than a book. Do not recommend. Let’s not encourage laziness.

An amateur effort all around
The book is based on a bunch of interviews with people who've done some important things, but the insights offered were weak. The author's politics came through pretty clearly throughout the book and as the result, the book came off sounding cliquey and vain. Finally, the production value was poor. Everything sounded as though it was cobbled together at the last minute by amateurs. I got the sense the author produced this because he could and not because it was a quality product. If he has fans/followers, I suspect they're disappointed by this effort. Glad I got it on sale. I don't recommend.
