The Dirty Little Secret of Business

For years I\\u2019ve been telling coaching clients that the dirty little secret of business is that everything comes down to relationships. I know: It\\u2019s not dirty. It\\u2019s certainly not little. And I suppose it\\u2019s not a secret--you know relationships are important. But the statistics about relationships are not encouraging and it\\u2019s not just because of social distancing during COVID.

Maybe it\\u2019s just that we\\u2019re busy. Or maybe it\\u2019s that what we think we know about relationships is wrong.

Eric Barker joins us again, this time to talk about his new book entitled Plays Well with Others: The Surprising Science Behind Why Everything You Know About Relationships Is (Mostly) Wrong.

In this episode, Eric talks about why the fundamental core of relationships is the stories we tell ourselves. He explains why we stink at reading people--despite thinking we\\u2019re awesome at it. Before we\\u2019re done with this episode, you\\u2019ll know what costly signals are and why it\\u2019s important to know about Negative Sentiment Override. Eric will even share some insights on conflict, that can be applied in love relationships as well as at work.
