À propos de cette écoute

From the best-selling author of The Bomber Mafia, learn what sets high achievers apart - from Bill Gates to the Beatles - in this seminal work from "a singular talent" (New York Times Book Review).

In this stunning audiobook, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers" - the best and the brightest, the most famous, and the most successful. He asks the question: What makes high-achievers different?

His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: That is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Along the way he explains the secrets of software billionaires, what it takes to be a great soccer player, why Asians are good at math, and what made the Beatles the greatest rock band.

Brilliant and entertaining, Outliers is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.

    This book gives a very interesting point of views about success by analyzing the stories behind successful people, schools, companies and even societies. It shows that success derives from a combination of many factors including the time, family, race, tradition, etc. Having a high IQ is just not enough to guarantee a successful career. You also have to be born in a right time at a right place in a right family, to be given a chance at a right moment... but maybe the most important message is that all outliers put a lot of time and effort into what they do. There is no exception, no shortcut for success.

    Fascinating book about success

    Read by the author this book unwinds the perceived notion of success into what circumstances allowed them to be successful. It is one one my favorite books

    Contrary to most self-help books, this one studies success through the social and cultural lenses, while still emphasizing an ethics of personal work. Very inspiring and mind-opening.

    Brillant mix between anthropology and personal development

    La théorie de l'auteur : le génie ne rencontre pas de succès sans baigner dans un environnement propice à la réussite, est bien démontrée et ce, de manière concrète avec des exemples passionnants. Ce livre permet de comprendre quel environnement est le plus fécond pour optimiser ses chances de réussites. Il offre aussi une lecture réaliste du succès : il ne suffit pas d'être doué, il faut travailler de manière acharnée.

    J'ai adoré et je le recommande vivement, néanmoins trouvé que certains chapitres auraient gagné à être plus courts.

    Une recette scientifique du succès

    In this book, Malcolm does a study of many of the highly successful people we know to prove that it is not mostly what they were born with, that is having a higher IQ or having a special talent who got them where they got. They had to put a huge amount of work, they took advantage of their environment, the period where they were born, gifts from their past generations and more. The example of Bill Gates show it clearly that he was advantaged not only because he was born in a blessed period to get mature during the IT boom, but also, having access to an outfitted computer in 1968 when he was 13, during that same period, computers were so expensive that even professors in computer science barely had access to them, and programming was so complex, by the time he showed up at the Silicon Valley, he had more than 10 000 hours of programming in his fingers. Nearly all of us, if given same opportunities with the outliers, we will surely write the same stories, if not better.
    The Asians do not have higher IQ than the rest of us, the just have more school time and work harder than the others, this is why the will outperform the rest of the world in maths and other scientific complex subjects. The example of the KIPP schools brought to the USA is a demonstration that working harder and for longer period can yield impressive results.

    Those who appear to be extraordinary are ordinary people

    It's an interesting book with a wide reach of examples of genius of all kinds and a deep look into what are the drivers of success, which surprisingly are not things beyond reach. Encouraging and educative.
