Power and Influence: The Power of Conformity

Welcome to the The Power of Conformity video lesson meant to educate viewers on how people tend to behave within social norms or side with the majority. This lesson is part of the “Power and Influence” video course, which guides viewers on the importance and prevalence of power in the workplace and how it can be used to influence others. In this video lesson, viewers learn how three famous social psychology experiments showed the power that conformity has over people’s behavior.
