Event Description:
 
Join the Women of UDI in-person for a spirited discussion about Think Again by Adam Grant over snacks and drinks. Don’t have enough time to read the book? Listen to the 1 hour Knowledge Project podcast with Adam Grant to learn about the key insights and perspectives of the book.
How do we rethink our position? Become better at winning debates and negotiating? Detach our opinion from our identity? How do we develop Confident Humility? We will be unpacking all of this at the upcoming discussion series.
We would love for you to join us in-person and share your thoughts about the topic of rethinking, and how it applies to our work in the development industry. We hope you enjoy this read/listen, and look forward to re-connecting with you over food and drink!

“THIS. This is the right book for right now. Yes, learning requires focus. But, unlearning and relearning requires much more - it requires choosing courage over comfort. In Think Again, Adam Grant weaves together research and storytelling to help us build the intellectual and emotional muscle we need to stay curious enough about the world to actually change it. I’ve never felt so hopeful about what I don’t know.”
– Brené Brown, Ph.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dare to Lead
