Podcast:ReThinking Published On: Tue May 27 2025 Description: When you mess up, a sincere apology can make all the difference. But making things right takes more than a simple “I’m sorry.” In this episode, Adam takes us from the pre-kindergarten classroom to Formula One’s race track to investigate what it takes to make amends, right wrongs, and repair relationships. Guests: pre-K teacher Kath Konecky; management professor Beth Polin; Formula One executive Mark Gallagher.FollowHost: Adam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: adamgrant.net/)Guest:Kath Konecky (Website: ps321.org/our-school/staff/)Beth Polin (Website: eku.edu/personnel/dr-beth-polin/)Mark Gallagher (Website: mark-gallagher.com/)Subscribe to TED Instagram: @tedYouTube: @TEDTikTok: @tedtoksLinkedIn: @ted-conferencesWebsite: ted.comPodcasts: ted.com/podcastsFor the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/rethinking-with-adam-grant-transcriptsFor the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/rethinking-with-adam-grant-transcriptsReThinking is produced by Cosmic Standard.
