<\/p>\n

Once in awhile you read a book that really sticks with you and changes the way you think. For me, one of those was Give and Take<\/em> by Adam Grant. It made me think about the kind of person I want to be in the world.<\/p>\n

What is a giver? A taker? And how do those roles play out in a nonprofit organization\u2026or in your life?<\/p>\n

I had the great privilege to have New York Times bestselling author Adam Grant on the podcast to discuss these topics and more. I feel so lucky that I can share some of his insights with you through this episode.<\/p>\n
