Summary
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.

Nicely formatted and snappy soundtrack makes it pleasant to listen. Gives good summary of what power is and how it's nature is changing with ongoing technology change.

Another brilliant AG thesis on a complex topic
At this point Adam is not writing books as fast as I want to read them. I feel enriched by a different,better view of the world after every book and am able to refine my purpose in service of the world with examples and perspectives Grant offers. This one is another for the library to be revisited. Highly recommend!

An original take on explaining power
I really enjoyed the interactive aspect of the book. Such an original and easy to grasp approach to taking a complex concept, which is power dynamics.

More like a podcast
It's a series of interesting, well produced interviews, strung together. The result is more like a podcast series with different themes per episode and not a lot of continuity. The total is not more than the sum of its parts in my view.

Short, enjoyable, insightful
I enjoyed the listen while washing dishes or going to work. I would give 5 stars if not for the music effects, completely unnecessary.
