Francesca Gino is one of the world’s most productive and creative
social scientists. And with this book, she shows that she’s also
one of the most persuasive. She makes a powerful and convincing
case that letting loose our inner troublemaker can open up new
vistas of creativity and problem-solving power
*Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of When and
Drive*
Francesca has a very personal and self-aware approach to bridging
the gap between the social norms that glue us together, and the
acts of challenging those norms. The rebellious approach has led to
great advances, and it also has led to abuse. She pushes us to
allow for people who challenge what we do, but with a grounding in
thinking about the use of power and status in our businesses and in
our lives

Studios*

unleash the inner rebel in others too

rules optimally. As a result, I just ate it up
*Robert B. Cialdini, New York Times bestselling author of
Influence and Pre-Suasion*

trouble without getting yourself into (too much) trouble. Francesca

incomparable joy of defying tired and tattered traditions (and
proving their misguided defenders wrong).

Survival Guide and Scaling Up Excellence*
