This Month’s Focus

Session Overview

This month, we dive into one of the most timely and thought-provoking ideas of our era: the power of rethinking.

In Think Again, Adam Grant challenges the assumption that intelligence is about having the right answers. Instead, he argues that true wisdom lies in our ability to question our own beliefs, unlearn outdated ideas, and stay mentally flexible in a fast-changing world.

Through engaging research, real-world examples, and compelling storytelling, Grant explores why we cling to opinions long after they stop serving us—and how adopting a mindset of curiosity rather than certainty can lead to better decisions, stronger relationships, and more innovative organisations.

Our discussion will explore how Think Again reframes disagreement as a tool for growth, highlights the dangers of overconfidence, and offers practical strategies for becoming more open-minded without losing conviction.

Central Question:
Why is rethinking so difficult—and why is it one of the most important skills we can develop today?
