Rule Makers & Rule Breakers A fascinating interview with Michele Gelfand about her new book, Rule Makers, Rule Breakers, and the exploration of the powerful forces tight and loose cultures play in wiring the world. Michele Gelfand is a celebrated cultural psychologist having spent two decades of research within this field. Michele takes us on an epic journey through human cultures, offering a startling new view of the world and ourselves. It's not often that we think of how cultures determine our behaviours however with many great examples Michele delivers some surprising discoveries. She explains why and how much of the diversity in the way that we think and act, derives from a key difference—how tightly or loosely we adhere to social norms. Enjoy!
