Excellent- More about No!: The Power of Disagreement in a World that Wants to Get Along
In "The Trouble with Consensus", Charlan Nemeth argues that consensus is often biased, unoriginal, or false, leading to poor decisions. By embracing dissent, we can make better decisions by questioning the status quo, considering more information, and engaging in creative decision-making.

Punchy, it could transform millions of meetings, doing away with all those mushy, consensus-driven hours wasted by people too scared of disagreement.
Beautifully written and important.
Adam Alter, bestselling author of Irresistible and Drunk Tank Pink, has written an essential book that challenges the principle of consensus. He argues that left unchallenged, the majority opinion is often biased, unoriginal, or false, leading to disastrous consequences such as plane crashes, market crashes, and wrongful convictions. Nemeth suggests that we can make better decisions by embracing dissent, which forces us to question the status quo, consider more information, and engage in creative decision-making. By studying examples of lone objectors who have brought groups closer to truth, such as Twelve Angry Men and Edward Snowden, we can learn how to bring a little trouble-maker spirit to our own lives and radically change the way we think, listen, and make decisions.
A timely tome on the perils of silence and the value of voice.
Adam Grant, bestselling author of Originals, has praised this book as a timely and important contribution to the field of decision-making.
