Adam Grant and Malcolm Gladwell: Originals-How Nonconformists Move the World

“Think different.” If Steve Jobs hadn’t done so, there’d be no Apple.
From Galileo to Benjamin Franklin, people who moved the world forward have championed ideas that challenged the status quo. Adam Grant, who established himself as one of his generation’s most compelling thought leaders with his first book, Give and Take, is joined by bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell to explore the big idea of originality: How do we champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity and buck outdated traditions - without risking it all?

I’m fascinated by the love and competition/bantering between these two I’ve several interviews. They are funny and touching.

[@haebyong47]

What distinguishes great geniuses is that their insight is so far beyond the current time that their mistakes later are found to be true. Cosmological constant....

[@alirezaamani2027]

One thing to notice is how actively/critically Malcom has read the book. Truly Inspired.

[@futbolusa]

I like how Gladwell challenges him. Good interviewer

[@jonblackwell9520]

+GET_IN_THE_VAN it definitely makes it very interesting to watch.

[@SleepingElephant]

Book reviewers who are critical and challenge are to be listened to. Like me..LOL.

Love this interview. Both parties are so engaging on the stage. Well done Mr. Gladwell

[@srimansrini]

Both are fantastic thinkers of our time. It's really worth watching to listen when they talk.

[@lynnmckenna9934]

Debate- done with intelligence and friendship. Love it!

My university had creative portfolios, timed essays, and current-student-evaluation as part of the admissions, and it was an extremely competitive school with strong identity and tight culture, producing super competent alumni. I might be biased, so I would love to see this process tested and refined

Malcolm : Here's another nerdy question. Adam : There you go Malcolm..Here's an up-nerded answer!

Great interview. Also, the muppet that comes to mind is Count Dracula..

Well, "Tesla auto is going out of business in 3 years" prediction didn't age well. It was close to "R.I.P. Tesla, good night, sweet prince" in 2019 though, so in terms of timing it was a good guess.

I guarantee even Gladwell thinks to himself. ‘Wow.... this guy is the biggest dork nerd I’ve ever met’

As a REALTOR with green or pink or purple hair from time to time - - I conform to the voices in my head! Seriously I do not do things as other REALTORS in my market. I love the folks I work with because they too do not conform to the ways nor the styles of this world! Sometimes when you fly under the radar and tuck away your personal life you can observe others and discover a lot of other cool things and stuff!

[@andybaldman]

You're beautiful.

[@kristoffervural821]

The scale and scope of Gladwell's intellect just surpasses this guy. Gladwell is a deep thinker, the other one's idea of self reflection is answering emails. Profound. I didn't hear him espouse a single unique idea.

As easy as... Step 1: Isolate the feeling. Step 2: Apply blame to why this feeling is there. Be honest. Step 3: Apply to grow past it.

WE USUALLY WRITE ABOUT WHAT INTRIGUE US OR BOTHER US, SOMETHING WE FIND ABSURD OR FANTASTIC, SOMETHING THAT WE THINK CAN BE IMPROVED.... SO, IF YOU ARE INDIFERENT TOWARDS THE SUBJECT, JUST GIVE UP

[@TheHopefulmonster]

Concerning "Predicting the future" as a presidential quality - Predicting the future on complex issues is very difficult / near impossible (refer to work on predicting / beating the stock market and / or the black swan theory). I'd rather have a president who has a good vision and good problem solving skills than one who tries to predict the future.

[@YuriRadavchuk]

Actually, Adam is right about types of character in a classroom. This is the procedure of accepting people used in Suffi brotherhood.

These two have very similar childish speech patterns. I like how they think, so it is more easily overlooked after listening to them after a few minutes...

[@AM-or5mi]

Malcolm Gladwell is a little bit of a pesky interviewer. I've seen his interviews with Michael Lewis where Malcolm clearly and visibly makes Michael uncomfortable with his persistent lines of questioning especially about Malcolm's interpretation that there are biblical narratives in Michael's books which he completely refuted. Malcolm also completely roasted (which I enjoyed) Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt’s when interviewing them about their new book; The Coddling of the American Mind. The point is, if you get interviewed by Malcolm in front of an audience, be ready to outmaneuver the smart ass or chances are, you will end up looking like a fool! LOL

[@colinlee1237]

the implication that gladwell roasted them is rich and would probably make gladwell shake his head at you

[@AM-or5mi]

@@colinlee1237 Don't be silly and focus on semantics. Roasted meaning he made them visibly uncomfortable as he repeatedly questioned the merits behind the most basic theory of their book. That is why many of the comments on Malcolm's interview with Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt also make reference to how difficult he was being. Much in the same way he was being difficult when interviewing Michael Lewis that even he (Malcolm) admitted during their second interview that his personal friends reached out to him to let him know how uncomfortable he made Lewis during that first interview.

[@josephstevens3526]

Gladwell seems like he either really doesn't like Grant, or he really doesn't like his ideas.
