If the world’s organizations and institutions were run more effectively, if our leaders made better decisions, if people worked more productively, we believe that all of us — employees, bosses, customers, our families, and the people our businesses affect — would be better off. We try to arm our readers with ideas that help them become smarter, more creative, and more courageous in their work. We encourage comments, critiques, and questions. We expect our community to be a safe space for respectful, constructive, and thought-provoking discussion. We reserve the right to remove or turn off comments at our discretion.

According to Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker, they all come down to a hidden force called common knowledge — what we know everyone else knows. In this episode of HBR IdeaCast, Pinker discusses his new book When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows and explains how common knowledge shapes money, power, leadership, and everyday life. From Apple’s famous “1984” ad to the psychology of dictatorships, discover how understanding this invisible force can change the way you lead, negotiate, and influence others. #stevenpinker #Psychology #Leadership #HBR #BusinessStrategy Books, tools, and more: store.hbr.org Follow us: https://hbr.org/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvard-business-review/ https://www.facebook.com/HBR/ https://twitter.com/HarvardBiz https://www.instagram.com/harvard_business_review Sign up for Newsletters: https://hbr.org/email-newsletters #HarvardBusinessReview #YourCareer #Career #Job #Work #Business #Harvard #HarvardBusinessSchool Copyright © 2025 Harvard Business School Publishing.
