HBR Cases

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

Do you agree with the statement that "90% of the variance in our positive or negative impressions about people is about warmth and/or strength?

It is difficult to judge this statement because of its complexity. However, intuitively, I feel it is a bit exaggerated but still largely true. When I think about first impressions, they seem to be largely consistent with warmth or strength. Yet there are many more considerations that do not fall into these two descriptions.

Do you agree with the statement that all people need to have a sense of belonging?

I think that having a sense of belonging is a desired state that represents more of a healthy emotional state.

The outside-in approach is a kinder and gentler way to work with people. It can be important to working in teams and building trust.
