Consider Give and Take by Adam Grant. Recommended by 30 sources.
“A research-heavy exploration of how reciprocity styles—givers, takers, and matchers—shape professional success. Grant uses stories from business, sports, and entertainment to argue that selfless givers can rise to the top if they avoid burnout and exploitation. The book is densely packed with studies, which makes it convincing but sometimes overwhelming. Useful for understanding networking through a generous lens, though the sheer volume of examples may feel like a barrage. Annoying if you want fewer anecdotes and more actionable steps.”
