Finding your hidden potential, and long connection between humans and dingoes

Life Matters - Full program podcast - En podcast af ABC listen

Who can achieve great things? Turns out it's less about who shows early promise, and more about those who develop the motivation to keep going. Organisational psychologist and author Adam Grant discusses his new book Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things, and how to find the genius in everyone. A new analysis of animal bones from a First Nations midden has provided more insight into the closeness of dingoes and humans prior to colonisation. We look at what this can teach us about our relationship with animals. Plus, in her memoir, Desi Girl, Sarah writes about the complexities and nuances of coming of age as a first generation Pakistani-Australian, in the shadow of 9/11 and all that came after.
