Best Friends in 45 Minutes

Chip Heath, Stanford Graduate School of Business
In conversation with: Tina Seelig, Stanford University

Chip Heath, professor of organizational behavior at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, describes research where strangers were brought much closer, emotionally, simply by having them ask each other a series of increasingly personal questions. Heath, co-author of the book “The Power of Moments,” says the study shows how “we’re only 45 minutes away from really close connections” with the people around us.
