The Benefits of Being a Misfit

When master biographer Walter Isaacson sits down to chat with bestselling author Adam Grant, he shares secrets and insights on the inner and outer lives of great innovators like Benjamin Franklin, Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, and Leonardo da Vinci. Who was a misfit? Who was a perfectionist? Who had a notebook full of unfinished projects? What did they have in common? In this fascinating conversation, Isaacson and Grant explore the roles that curiosity, creativity, teambuilding, self-knowledge, kindness, and cruelty had in the success of these great men, and draw connections to life and work today.
