Learn what’s really behind a breakthrough

When we think of breakthrough successes, the first thing that comes to mind is the result: Brie Larson’s Academy-Award-winning performance in Room, or Airbnb’s $100B valuation. 

We rarely see the bumps in the road: Larson’s two decades of failed auditions, or the Airbnb founders’ $30k in debt when they couldn’t find investors.

Join us for a conversation between NYU Stern professor Scott Galloway and bestselling author Adam Alter, where they’ll discuss:

  • Why so many people feel stuck – whether in jobs, relationships, or life 
  • Strategies for getting “unstuck” when you’re on the road to a breakthrough 
  • How to reduce friction points getting in the way of your goals
