Adam Grant, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Think Again and host of the podcast Re:Thinking. Gone are the days of static organizational charts and staffing based on the manager s rolodex and intuition. Now you can recruit any expertise you need from a global online network within minutes: an on-demand, on-the-spot expert at the exact moment that you need their help.
