Summary

Hey 33%! You're in for a treat today. This one's a little bit different. Lefkoe sits down with organizational psychologist and author (most recently of the book "Think Again") Adam Grant, who applies his interesting research on biased thinking to the sports world. Fans, athletes, and front office members alike can fall prey to certain ingrained modes of thinking, and no matter what your fan allegiance, you'll likely take away some interesting insights about your own professional life from this interview. Hope you enjoy this one, and we'll be back on Friday morning with the next installment of the NFL Draft Crash Course.
And please hit up @AdamMGrant on social media today so he knows the 33% is out there!
