How Rivalry Can Actually Hurt Your Team

October 2, 2026 12:36 pm

ABOUT THE EPISODE
Can competing against someone actually make you worse at working with everyone else? Research suggests that individual rivalry can come at a cost to the entire team.

Henning Piezunka, Associate Professor of Management at the Wharton School, joins the show to discuss his research into the relationship between rivalry and performance.

Using NBA matchups like Larry Bird versus Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant versus Michael Jordan, Piezunka explains why players may score more against individual rivals while making their teams less effective. He also explores the lessons for workplace competition, employee incentives, and business leadership.
