Adam Galinsky, Maurice Schweitzer
Friend & Foe
Columbia & Wharton Business School Professors Adam Galinsky & Maurice Schweitzer talk about their new book, "Friend & Foe: When to Cooperate, When to Compete, and How to Succeed at Both." They discuss why humans aren't hardwired to exclusively cooperate or compete, but rather to do both interchangeably. Along the way, they address questions such as: Why are twins reared apart sometimes more similar than twins reared together? Why do husbands gain weight during their wives' pregnancy? Why does hierarchy help in basketball but hurt in baseball?
