ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World" by Adam Grant explores how individuals can champion original ideas and challenge the status quo. The book delves into the processes of generating, recognizing, and voicing original ideas while also navigating the emotional and social challenges that accompany non-conformity. It argues that originality is a skill, not an innate talent, and can be cultivated through specific strategies. The book also explores the importance of questioning norms, using strategic procrastination, building effective coalitions, and managing emotions. The narrative emphasizes the need to balance risk with caution, diversify efforts, and find allies to support a vision. It also highlights the need to make original ideas more familiar and build a sense of urgency to drive change.
