Originals by Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again and Hidden Potential, is a groundbreaking exploration of how individuals can champion bold new ideas and drive meaningful change—whether in the workplace, classroom, or everyday life. A #1 New York Times bestseller, the book challenges the idea that originality is reserved for a few and shows how anyone can think differently and make an impact.

Building on the success of Give and Take, Grant dives into what it means to be truly original: to question the status quo, speak up without fear, and take smart risks that inspire progress. Through compelling research and real-life stories from business, politics, sports, and entertainment, he reveals how to recognize promising ideas, build supportive networks, manage self-doubt, and push back against conformity—without sacrificing personal or professional success.

Learn how a cautious entrepreneur convinced investors by sharing the flaws in his pitch, how a junior Apple employee challenged Steve Jobs, and how dissent and constructive criticism helped shape some of the world’s biggest breakthroughs. Originals is not just about creativity—it's a practical guide to reshaping the world around you, one original idea at a time.
