Alive at Work

Advance Praise for Alive at Work Adam Grant, New York Times--bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B (with Sheryl Sandberg)-- If you care about improving the quality of life at work, you'll enjoy this lively book. Daniel Cable presents a bold vision and practical ideas for breathing life into every organization. Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and To Sell Is Human-- In this smart, insightful book, Daniel Cable argues that too many organizations suppress our innate, biological drive to learn and grow--and thereby leave us feeling listless and unproductive.
