Summary
Are you above average? Is your child an A student? Is your employee an introvert or an extrovert? Every day we are measured against the yardstick of averages, judged according to how closely we come to it or how far we deviate from it.
I've given the audiobook a listen and now I'm itching to dive back in for another round. I've been raving about this book to my family, friends, and even my colleagues. We all need to seriously consider its message.
This audiobook does an excellent job of offering a scientific perspective on achieving success. It definitely strengthens what I have always believed about the keys to success. I would highly recommend it, especially if you enjoy reading books by Malcolm Gladwell.
The 'The End of Average: How We Succeed in a World That Values Sameness' really captured my thoughts about how the "system" often overlooks individuals who have unique ways of thinking or learning. I've always been a big fan of Lou Adler and his approach to performance-based hiring. As a recruiter, I believe in seeing beyond just a resume and finding individuals who truly fit within an organization. We all have something valuable to offer the world!
A great book that starts with an in depth discussion about how our education system, based in the industrial age, got us to here. The book continues with a conversation about why that norm is no longer acceptable and ends with what our options are for the future. Fully engaging and interesting 'The End of Average' will make you question your own education and think about how to best serve your children; be they your clan or your students.
