Maximize your potential for connection, healing, and personal growth with this “timely bridge for our divided world.” (Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential)
"We've been hiding from each other for far too long. Seek offers us an empathic, practical, and heartfelt road map forward." ―Seth Godin, author of The Song of Significance and Tribes
Did you know that curiosity is your superpower? Whether you want to save a relationship, improve company culture, or find peace at the next family reunion, internationally-recognized curiosity expert and bridge builder, Scott Shigeoka, knows that there’s only one path to connection, healing, and growth: Deep Curiosity.
Rooted in a desire to understand, rather than to know, a practice of Deep Curiosity can help us leverage something we think of as just a personality trait or intellectual pursuit into a radical daily practice that can transform our well-being and lives for the better.
In Seek, Shigeoka blends cutting-edge research with electric, vulnerable storytelling to teach readers their signature DIVE model. With his guidance, you’ll learn more than a dozen practical strategies to:
- Detach — Let go of their ABCs (assumptions, biases, certainty),
- Intend — Prepare their mindset and setting,
- Value — See the dignity of every person, including themselves,
- Embrace — Welcome the hard times in their life
In this “energizing, creative, and exciting” (Gretchen Rubin) playbook, Seek offers a revolutionary set of tools that will help any person or group navigate the rampant grief, division, loneliness, and hate that we're experiencing in our lives and the world.
