HBR Cases From Cuddy et al., "Connect, Then Lead" ~

From Ariely, "The End of Rational Economics"~

1) What is meant by the falsity of standard economic theory? 2) What is meant by the "darkside" of teamwork?

Hamlet states, "For this same lord, / I do repent…I must be their scourge and minister," (Act III, Scene 4).
