Frank AginHOST
Yes.
Frank AginHOST
There's a whole chapter in Adam Grant's book, Give and Take, about that.
Frank AginHOST
I think he calls it, not small talk, but something along those lines.
Frank AginHOST
I'll have to go look it up.
Jeremy WeiszGUEST
And because we're, if, if you some, and this goes back to the Dream 200.
Jeremy WeiszGUEST
If you choose the right guest and you are, okay, this is a potential partnership, and then I give as much as humanly possible to that partnership, and they are a giving person also, naturally, and I don't have expectation on this, but naturally they're going to, they're in the same space, they're probably gonna refer too at some point, right? And so there's a book that I love, which is "Give and Take" by Adam Grant, and there's givers, takers, and matchers, and the most successful and the least successful are givers, okay? So, you know, I consider myself a giver.
Jeremy WeiszGUEST
I wanna connect people.
Jeremy WeiszGUEST
But if you focus on, if someone focuses or I focus on the wrong type of people, then it will suck all of my energy and time as opposed to the right type of people.
Eric BerglundHOST
What does that mean to you? Where do you find it naturally? Where do you find it really challenging?
Shawn BusseGUEST
There's a pretty formative book for me called Give and Take.
Shawn BusseGUEST
I think it's an Adam Grant book, if I remember correctly.
Shawn BusseGUEST
But it was just studying leadership styles.
Joe SimonsHOST
And I think part of that is true.
Joe SimonsHOST
But I went on a pretty deep dive here with this book called Give and Take by Adam Grant.
Joe SimonsHOST
And what's really interesting, I found out about this from none other than John Morgan.
Joe SimonsHOST
Yes, of Morgan and Morgan, whether you like or hate him, because it's usually one or the other.
Joe SimonsHOST
So in the interview, someone asked him, right, what are some keys to success? And he's like, you got to give way more than you take.
Joe SimonsHOST
And he kept talking about that.
Joe SimonsHOST
And he says, like, you know, one of the best books ever, if you want to learn how to become a great giver, is Give and Take by Adam Grant.
Joe SimonsHOST
So I was like, all right, I'll read it.
Morgan J. IngramGUEST
... you can, you can say it in a way that, like, is normal.
Julian AlvarezHOST
Have you ever read Give and Take? Um, gosh, where is it? By Adam Grant? Give and Take.
Morgan J. IngramGUEST
No, I actually haven't.
Julian AlvarezHOST
It reminds me a lot about this book in terms of, like, being a giver or a taker, and it talks about being a giver, being somebody that actually can really propel their career.
Darnyelle Jervey HarmonHOST
And they are measurably less successful.
Darnyelle Jervey HarmonHOST
Adam Grant, who is a top rated professor at Wharton School of Business, wrote the book Give and Take.
Darnyelle Jervey HarmonHOST
Maybe you've read it.
Darnyelle Jervey HarmonHOST
If not, I highly recommend it.
Jack O'BrienHOST
I come to church to give.
Jack O'BrienHOST
There's actually a wonderful book, a secular book by Adam Grant called The book is called Give and Take.
Jack O'BrienHOST
And really, we see this in church too, right? We see this amongst blokes.
Jack O'BrienHOST
There are givers and there are takers.
Bob BurgGUEST
Yeah.
Bob BurgGUEST
I think for for the person who is a and in his his excellent book, Give and Take, Professor Adam Grant talked about givers, takers and matchers.
Bob BurgGUEST
And the person you described would probably be called a matcher.
Bob BurgGUEST
So they will give value, but it's always with the attachment, if you will, to the person giving back to them and doing something for them.
Derek MinerGUEST
Yeah.
Anita GranthamHOST
And then I love that Adam granted one give and take.
Derek MinerGUEST
Yes.
Anita GranthamHOST
Because that is also interesting.
Alan RossGUEST
Well, you know, I'm sure you know Adam
Healey CypherHOST
Grant and all of his work from Give and Take.
Healey CypherHOST
And, you know, one of the studies in there that I loved was, is across every culture, every language, every religion, there was one consistent thing that they all valued, no matter what it was.
Alan RossGUEST
Yeah.
