Book Overview

Ranked one of the best books of the year by Amazon, Apple, the Financial Times, and the Wall Street Journal-as well as one of Orphan's riveting reads, Fortune's must-read business books, Harvard Business Review's ideas that shaped management, and the Wahshington Post's books every leader should read.
For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success: passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But today, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. It turns out that at work, most people operate as either takers, matchers, or givers. Whereas takers strive to get as much as possible from others and matchers aim to trade evenly, givers are the rare breed of people who contribute to others without expecting anything in return.
Using his own pioneering research as Wharton’s top-rated professor, Adam Grant shows that these styles have a surprising impact on success. Although some givers get exploited and burn out, the rest achieve extraordinary results across a wide range of industries. Combining cutting-edge evidence with captivating stories, Grant shows how one of America’s best networkers developed his connections, why the creative genius behind one of the most popular shows in television history toiled for years in anonymity, how a basketball executive responsible for multiple draft busts transformed his franchise into a winner, and how we could have anticipated Enron’s demise four years before the company collapsed–without ever looking at a single number.

What happened to Reebok?  Year 2005, Adidas acquires  Reebok in $3.5 billion.  And in year 2021, the  same Adidas sells the same  Reebok to Authentic  Brands Group in $2.7 billion.  Such a brand whose name was  on the bat of our Indian cricket team.   Such a brand from which  we used to have craze,  today, no one cares about that .  But how did this happen? (Pic-popularity of re..)  Today, we don't even think of the brand  Reebok which was famous worldwide.  Maybe Reebok was not  compete with other shoes brands.  That's why it failed.  But, there is nothing like this.  And you will be surprised that  once, Reebok had surpassed Nike.  Nike, which is that biggest   sportswear brand in the world.  And not just that,  there was a time  when Reebok has 50%  share market of Indian market.  But still, the Reebok which used to  dominate sportswear equipment market  today, it has disappeared.  And this thing puts two  questions in front of us.
