The motivational poster said, just in case you're curious: "Working here is like peeing in a dark suit, no one notices if you've done a good job but you get a warm feeling." :-)

[@lisasays6174]

Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants. John W. Gardner

[@tekiredfox6672]

whoever filmed this had no idea because they they felt the need to follow the speaker instead of showing the power points when the speaker is giving them notice

[@smartalec1616]

Love the presentation. Can I have a copy of the presentation?

[@joecrea9156]

For the slides: Adam Grant 2 years ago in reply to smartalec1616 Thank you for the enthusiasm! The link to the slides now appears in the video description.

It would be great to see the powerpoint slide or presentation Prof. Grant is delivering. I, and I am sure others, would especially appreciate knowing what the motivational poster was that he refers to.

[@KoshySamuel]

Adam We like to see the slides you are showing to learn more on what you are presenting..

[@nickpelkey]

Was made aware of your work today. You're getting some good press. Interested to see how the principals you've been presenting can be applied to our small counseling agency. I'm thinking we're givers.. big wink.

[@studentfdsa6169]

Any way we can access a list of the references/studies you mentioned during talk? For example, Ashton and Lee (spelled phonetically), Asher and McRae, etc. would love to be able to look into some of their studies! Thanks!

Lame that the images aren’t included

/within us, we are both. AS PEOPLE become leaders, their extroversion increases. Most extroverts would 'fall' into introversion, unless careful and most introverts would fall into distraction unless careful

I would like to be like you !!!

[@luyaozhang1690]

Anyone who wants to see what the poster is like at 5:33 just like me? :D

[@yuanshi1640]

a humorous speech

[@jonathanavila9699]

Man I wish I can see what he's talking about

[@TheDistortion93]

While there are many good points, I find some of his extrovert/introvert analysis to be flawed, it's holds some nice ideas though.

[@oliberrr]

We’re still looking for ways of helping Introverts sort of navigate some of the social challenges they might experience within the new developments in technology. And I’d be interested in anybody’s thoughts on that who wants to chat afterward. *Extroverts flocked Adam. Introverts went home.* 😅😅😅 PS I’m an introvert.

[@Snackay]

Thank you...Abraham Lincoln. Leadership is not always a figurehead. Wasn't John Lennon a introvert?

[@HBBILY]

Has he written a book?

[@mudit5151]

and then Google was invented

[@HBBILY]

[@mudit5151]
