What is Grit and Why it Matters: A Conversation with Angela Duckworth and Kobie Fuller
What is grit? Is it something that you\u2019re born with? Is it a skill you have to practice? Or is it a combination of the two?
On today\u2019s episode, Angela Duckworth, a MacArthur Genius Grant winner, academic, and author, explores that question with Kobie Fuller, the Chairman and Co-Founder of Valance Community. Marie Rosencrans, an SVP of SMB Marketing at Salesforce, leads the wide-ranging conversation. They discuss what qualities are common in overachievers, how leaders use stress to fuel themselves, and what it takes to build a gritty team that will succeed in the short and long term, regardless of the obstacles thrown in their way.
