His framework won't just help you generate more creative ideas and make smarter decisions--it will teach you to see around corners." -- Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author, Originals and Give and Take; host, TED WorkLife podcast

Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School; author, The Fearless Organization

"Every once in a while, I read a book that makes me slap my forehead and ask, Why in the world haven't I been doing this?

It also happens to be a delight to read." -- Heidi Grant, author, Nine Things Successful People Do Differently and Reinforcements

It's the most useful business book we've read in years." -- Douglas Stone and Sheila Heen, New York Times bestselling coauthors, Difficult Conversations and Thanks for the Feedback
