Give and Take

summary
Do nice guys really finish last? Not according to Adam Grant’s book "Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success". Grant argues that people who are categorized as "givers" can be just as successful as those who are "takers" or "matchers", and that successful givers are not necessarily self-sacrificing philanthropists. Rather, they have mastered the art of being generous without crossing into martyrdom or burnout. Grant offers a treasure trove of research to back up his claims, while also weaving in narratives about successful givers like Jack Welch and Richard Branson, contrasting their approaches with those of infamous takers like Bernie Madoff. "Give and Take" is a must-read for anyone looking to achieve success while also leaving a positive impact on the world.
