Interview with Professor Denise Rousseau

If you have been taught that relationship conflict (A-conflict) in teams is bad for team performance but arguing about tasks (C-conflict) is good, I encourage you to read my wide-ranging interview in BusinessThink with Professor Denise Rousseau (Carnegie Mellon University), the originator of this idea. After seeing the systematic evidence, she changed her mind and now is a leader in the movement to make management practice more evidence-based. I learned a lot from her while she was distinguished visiting scholar at UNSW earlier this year. To help spread her important message about evidence-based management, I interviewed Denise for BusinessThink.
