YOUniversity with Adam Grant
in conversation with Derek Coburn
We will be joined by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of six books, discussing many of the ideas from his forthcoming project, Vibe: The Secrets of Strong Connections in a Lonely World.
When we vibe with other people, it fuels our happiness and success. Yet building meaningful ties is one of the most pressing problems of our time. As face-to-face interaction gives way to digital screens, communication gets outsourced to AI, and the world becomes more polarized, our loneliness crisis shows no signs of slowing.
To reveal how we can forge faster, stronger, and longer bonds, we’ll dig into groundbreaking studies, expert insights, and myth-busting stories. You’ll learn that similarity is not necessary for solidarity, chemistry doesn’t always happen quickly, and closeness doesn’t always take time.
BONUS: All attendees will receive a copy of Vibe (a $20 value).
