How to Have a Breakthrough
A conversation with Scott Galloway and Adam Alter
Featuring Scott Galloway, NYU Stern professor, and Adam Alter, author of Anatomy of a Breakthrough
May 16, 2023

Learn what’s really behind a breakthrough
When we think of breakthrough successes, the first thing that comes to mind is the result: Brie Larson’s Academy-Award-winning performance in Room, or Airbnb’s $100B valuation.
We rarely see the bumps in the road: Larson’s two decades of failed auditions, or the Airbnb founders’ $30k in debt when they couldn’t find investors.
Join us for a conversation between NYU Stern professor Scott Galloway and bestselling author Adam Alter, where they’ll discuss:
- Why so many people feel stuck – whether in jobs, relationships, or life
- Strategies for getting “unstuck” when you’re on the road to a breakthrough
- How to reduce friction points getting in the way of your goals
