Hi, I’m Ron Friedman.
I’m a social psychologist who left academia for the corporate world. When I got there, I was stunned by how little the science of top performance, collaboration, and teamwork was being used.
Today, I write bestselling books that turn cutting-edge research into practical strategies leaders and teams can use to work smarter, build high-performing teams, and drive better results.
Through my company, Superteams, Inc, I’ve helped over 100,000 leaders strengthen collaboration and performance at organizations like IBM, Boeing, Accenture, Anheuser Busch InBev, Walgreens, MassMutual, ADP, Cognizant, and SunLife.
“Dr. Friedman is the single best speaker we’ve ever had at an annual event.”
