About This Event

What’s the most effective path to success in any domain? You’re invited to find out during a conversation with New York Times bestselling author David Epstein as he chats about his most recent book, “Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World”, on Monday, March 13 at 1 pm..
Epstein examined the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters, and scientists. He discovered that generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel in most fields—especially those that are complex and unpredictable. Generalists often find their path late, juggling many interests rather than focusing on one. They’re also more creative, agile, and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.
Provocative, rigorous, and engrossing, Range makes a compelling case for actively cultivating inefficiency.
