Group Negotiation Secrets: How to Lead Without Losing Control
Episode description
In this episode, Kwame Christian sits down with Colin M. Fisher, author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups, to explore the hidden psychology of group dynamics. From the dinner table to the boardroom, every group is a negotiation — balancing individual goals with collective success.
You’ll learn:
-
Why adding more brains to a meeting often creates more problems.
-
The “Goldilocks rule” for group size (and why 4–5 people may be perfect).
-
How psychological safety transforms conflict into collaboration.
-
Practical strategies to prevent disengagement and get real buy-in.
-
How family conflicts mirror team conflicts at work — and how to resolve both.
Whether you’re leading a team, joining a new group, or navigating tricky family dynamics, this conversation will help you see groups in a whole new way.
