Interestingly, the popular press does not hold this same conception; business
books remain enamored by leaders and their teams. A perusal of Business
Week and other popular business outlets reveal a celebration of
leadership and teamwork. For example, what social psychologists refer to as
‘‘social loafing’’ is referred to as ‘‘the wisdom of crowds’’ in a recent business
best-seller. Indeed, the positive spin on teamwork and successful leaders
likely results from the fact that books about faults do not sell.
