The leader and the cooperation strength

Abstract

Cooperation, which is defined in a general way as a behavior that involves a benefit for others, is a phenomenon widespread in nature without being exclusive of humans. Cooperation advantages are unquestionable; this behavior provides strategies that facilitate adaptation and constitute the main aspect of the current organizational dynamics. Although cooperation has its origins in human evolution as a behavior that favored survival, the social roles transformation suggests understanding the cooperation strength beyond the reciprocal altruism.
