Foreword

The social identity approach to leadership and why it matters

In June 1954, two groups of a dozen 11-year-old boys alighted from separate buses in isolated Robbers Cave State Park in Oklahoma. For the next three weeks these young men would participate in what later became known as the Robbers Cave experiment. For the first week they would live in separation in different parts of the park, as the two groups separately bonded. In this week, one group would kill a rattlesnake and would proudly name themselves the Rattlers. The other group would name themselves the Eagles. In the next week, the groups were brought together to play competitive games. At this point all hell broke loose as the Eagles and the Rattlers competed and fought with each other. Then, in the studys final week, the researchers set cooperative tasks for the boys. This involved them working towards shared goals rather than conflicting ones. This repaired the damage of the previous week and the boys went home on the same bus, with Eagles and Rattlers in some cases even riding together as friends.

Some years later, Henri Tajfel, a University of Bristol professor of social psychology, wondered what would be the minimal intervention that could get boys of approximately this age to divide themselves into separate groups like the boys from Oklahoma. In this and in many subsequent experiments with different co-authors, he found that even the most minimal interventions would cause in-group favoritism and out-group discrimination. In the most famous of these experiments, the subjects were divided into a Klee group and a Kandinsky group, supposedly on the basis of their liking for paintings by these two abstract artists. Although in fact the division was random, the Klees subsequently preferred their fellow Klees and discriminated against those awful Kandinskys, while the Kandinskys symmetrically preferred fellow Kandinskys and discriminated against those awful Klees.
