Book description
James Clear author of Atomic Habits

This remarkable book reveals what it takes to become a better version of yourself. Adam Grant lights the way to developing talents that once seemed beyond your abilities and achieving goals that once seemed out of reachย 
โ€•ย James Clear, author of ATOMIC HABITS

“Hidden Potential” is an exploration of human capability and achievement. Adam Grant, drawing on extensive research and compelling real-world examples, demonstrates that success is not determined by innate talent alone but by our ability to grow, learn, and persist in the face of challenges.

This book is about recognizing and cultivating the untapped abilities within ourselves and others. Grant shows how character skills like proactivity, discipline, and determination often matter more than cognitive abilities in achieving long-term success. He explains why embracing discomfort and starting tasks before feeling fully prepared can lead to remarkable progress.

Readers will learn:

โ€ข How to develop crucial character skills that drive success
โ€ข Strategies for overcoming perfectionism and embracing productive failure
โ€ข Techniques for enhancing motivation and maintaining progress
โ€ข Methods for creating systems that reveal and nurture hidden potential
โ€ข Leadership approaches that elevate team performance and individual growth

 

“Hidden Potential” offers a transformative approach to understanding and maximizing human capabilities. It provides actionable insights for individuals to surpass their perceived limitations and for organizations to create environments where talent can flourish.

Grant’s engaging writing style and evidence-based recommendations make this book an essential read for anyone looking to achieve greater things in their personal and professional lives
