Most of us assume data-driven people make data-driven decisions. Not quite. Adam Grant has built a career helping others think more clearly — but when it comes to his own career, the most important calls he’s made didn’t have clear data behind them. So how did he decide? In this first episode of WorkLife with Molly Graham, Adam joins Molly to talk about how he actually navigates uncertainty — the four questions he asks before committing to any big project, what he calls “deliberate then dive”, and how he measures success when the numbers don’t tell the whole story.Featured guest<ul><li>Follow Adam on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/adamgrant/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammgrant" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, and at <a href="https://adamgrant.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">adamgrant.net/</a></li><li>Subscribe to Adam’s <a href="https://adamgrant.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">substack</a></li></ul>Connect with the team<ul><li>Follow Molly on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/molly_graham/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>,<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mograham/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> LinkedIn</a>, and at <a href="https://www.glueclub.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">glueclub.com/</a></li><li>Subscribe to Molly’s Substack <a href="https://mollyg.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lesson</a></li><li>Watch WorkLife videos on YouTube at<a href="https://www.youtube.com/TEDAudioCollective" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> TEDAudioCollective</a></li><li>Follow TED on <a href="https://x.com/TEDTalks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a></li></ul>Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at&nbsp;<a href="https://attend.ted.com/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">attend.ted.com/podcast</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
