Psychopathic individuals do not simply lack empathy. Instead...empathy seems to be a voluntary activity. If they want to, they can empathize, and that explains how they can be so charming, and maybe so manipulative. So, we might ask: How can you deal effectively with a psychopath's emotional intelligence? Find out how in today's column.

The Facebook VP's defense of his memo is the latest in a long line of trust breakers from Facebook. Bosworth claims that he never believed what he said in the memo in the first place.

Everyone knows Corona beer doesn't give you Coronavirus, but the name itself could become toxic if the virus'​ toll steepens.

Very excited to be a part of the new Vox Media brand new marketing campaign and a new web site which launched this week. It was my pleasure to shoot group portraits of The Verge (obviously!), Eater, Vox, and SB Nation, three of which are currently running as print ads in Adweek (I can't remember the last time I shot a print ad) and on a billboard in Times Square, NYC. Vox Media also released an awesome new sizzle reel, the undisputed highlight of which is the last two lines of VO. Enjoy …see more

Despite the impact of cancel-culture, within a time of frantic brand monitoring and reputation management... I'm constantly reminded of a quote from Andy Warhol in 1980: "Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.” (Newspaper inches.) Mark Ritson is out with a new piece about the real impact of overly-crafted brand image: "Over the past decade marketers have come to learn that, rather than just the gateway, coming to mind and being present in the consumer’s consciousness during decision-making is most of the house and the back garden too... The superiority of salience reflects a growing awareness that, in the age of Trump, what people think of you is far less important than the more brutal objective of getting people to think about you." I agree with that. And, this: "We overthought things and made the cardinal error of assuming brands were as big for consumers as they were for us marketers... We need to calm down. We need to take more risks." Someone once said this, maybe I dreamt it: Everything is marketing, but #marketing isn't everything. (Mark's post in comments #feedthealgorithm ) …see more

Hotjar CEO David Darmanin on removing the Trump-Pence campaign account from their behavior analytics platform: "We generally don’t disclose publicly any information about accounts we terminate, but in this case we feel we owe it to our community to explain where we stand in such a polarizing time. We also want to take the opportunity to invite other tech companies to honor their values and take a firm stance against hate and racism." …see more

Anxiety shows up in our thinking patterns around work: - Catastrophizing: Imagining the worst possible outcome. “I will get fired if the presentation has any glitches.” - Mind reading: Imagining what others are thinking. “I know he doesn’t like working with me because he thinks I’m dumb.” - Fortune telling: Imagining what the future holds, but without data. “They will all hate me in the new group because I’m the only one who isn’t a physicist.” - Black-and-white thinking: Considering only two possible outcomes. “I’ll either hit a home run or get fired.” - Overgeneralizing: Painting all situations with a generalized outcome. “I presented to the CEO last year, and it didn’t go well. I never get things right or always fail when it comes to executive audiences.” This great HBR article offers strategies for overcoming these via Sabina Nawaz . https://lnkd.in/d2_MN-D …see more
