Play Nice

★ When you were playing outside, your parents probably told you to "play nice!"

This sentence was a warning full of implied rules: share with others, protect the little ones, don't be aggressive, don't hurt anyone, make yourself respected but don't be selfish.

Why is this wise rule not the dominant rule at the professional level?

★ Discover how we have collectively forgotten that competition and cooperation must coexist to have a balanced life.

Even among competitors, the future of work will lead organizations as well as individuals to understand that it will be more and more necessary to cooperate. Through concrete examples from the animal world, business, and sports, you will learn that "coopetition" is an attitude shared by successful people. This book is a journey from Roman antiquity to the present day that will make you want to join those who play nice.
