Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
In this episode, Jim Garrity applies lessons from a well-known study - on the factors that influence people to cooperate with or resist perceived authority figures - to the deposition process. The lessons will help you better understand deponent perceptions that may be triggering their uncooperativeness. While some elements of the study were considered controversial, other mundane but noteworthy observations can help deter obstructive behavior by deponents.
