Summary

How resourceful are you? When we harness the science of resourcefulness, we can achieve great things in our personal, professional, and financial lives. How do we define success? For many people success means more; more money, more stuff, more employees. But that definition is wrong. There are two approaches to resources; chasing and stretching. When we chase, we tire ourselves out going after more, more, more. If we stretch, we use the resources we already have available. Once we stop chasing and start stretching, we are better able to solve problems and innovate which means we are more fully engaged in our endeavors. Author Scott Sonenshein joins us to discuss his new book on resourcefulness. Scott Sonenshein is the Henry Gardiner Symonds Professor of Management at Rice University. His new book Strech: Unlock the Power of Less-and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined gives us a new way to succeed in business and our lives by using the science of resourcefulness.
