Organizational psychologist Adam Grant (Think Again, 2021 and Originals, 2016) returns with a readable, engaging work on potential, success, and talent. In Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things (2023), Grant uses stories of individual and group accomplishments in education, sports, business, and the arts to highlight how people have achieved success and the tools we can all use to grow our potential and skillsets. This thought-provoking work showcases the importance of character building and scaffolding (support).
I particularly enjoyed all of the inspiring examples across fields as well as learning about how education systems around the globe have best supported students. For fans of Malcolm Gladwell.
