Knowledge sharing and innovation In the 1970s, Walker’s Wagon Wheel Tavern sealed its role in innovation history. Its name perfectly captured what took place there – like spokes on a wheel, people converged and the air was full of conversation on a Friday night.

Would you ever hurt someone intentionally? What about if someone you respected told you to do it? In some cases, people will believe almost anything someone tells them, if the person telling them appears to have the authority to do so. One of the most dangerous biases in the world might be the Authority Bias. This is the tendency to attribute greater accuracy to the opinion of an authority figure ( unrelated to its content ) and be more influenced by that opinion.
