These theorems that when
solving problems, diversity
can trump ability and that
when making predictions
diversity matters just as
much as ability are not
political statements. They
are mathematical truths. -Scott Page

When diverse groups perform
well, they don’t recognize
their improved performance.
When people have visceral
feelings and emotions it’s
really hard to explain them
away as “good” when they are
feeling bad. -Katherine W. Phillips
![Page 31: Let the Wild Rumpus Start (Great Ideas 2012)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5440f8e1afaf9f52208b45d2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Group intelligence is
not strongly tied to
either the average
intelligence of the
members or the team’s
smartest member. -Thomas Malone, MIT Center for Collective
Intelligence

social network analysis
From time to time people discuss
important matters with other
people. Looking back over the
past six months, who are the
people with whom you discussed
matters important to you?
![Page 35: Let the Wild Rumpus Start (Great Ideas 2012)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5440f8e1afaf9f52208b45d2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
social network analysis
Consider the people you
communicate with in order to get
your work done. Of all the
people you have communicated
with during the last six months,
who has been the most important
for getting your work done?
![Page 36: Let the Wild Rumpus Start (Great Ideas 2012)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5440f8e1afaf9f52208b45d2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
social network analysis
Consider an important project or
initiative that you are involved in.
Consider the people who would be
influential for getting it approved
or obtaining the resources you
need. Who would you talk to, to
get the support you need?
![Page 37: Let the Wild Rumpus Start (Great Ideas 2012)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5440f8e1afaf9f52208b45d2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
social network analysis
Who do you socialize with?
(spending time with people after
work hours, visiting one another at
home, going to social events, out
for meals and so on) Over the last
6 months, who are the main people
with whom you have socialized
informally?

Groups often fail to
outperform individuals
because they prematurely
move to consensus, with
dissenting opinions being
suppressed or dismissed.
-Hackman, Morris (1975) Advances in Experimental
Social Psychology
![Page 52: Let the Wild Rumpus Start (Great Ideas 2012)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5440f8e1afaf9f52208b45d2/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Minority dissent, even dissent
that is wrong, stimulates
divergent thought. Issues
and problems are considered
from more perspectives and
group members find more
correct answers.
-Nemeth, Staw (1989) Advances in Experimental
Social Psychology
