Corporate Sociopath Handbook

About the Author

From an early age, I’ve been driven by a pursuit of control, success, and power. This obsession led me deep into the darker corners of the corporate world. With degrees in computer science and an MBA, I started as a software developer and soon transitioned into management consulting. It didn’t take long for me to realize that intelligence and hard work alone don’t guarantee a rise to the top.

I discovered a group playing an entirely different game, one with unwritten and never spoken rules. Curious and determined, I chose a path of short-term contracts across various industries and roles; from accounting, IT, and marketing to politics, operations, and HR. My goal was simple: to understand every facet of business and how it intertwines with human behavior.

This journey exposed me to numerous corporate sociopaths, some dangerously influential. Imagine witnessing firsthand how a single manipulative tactic can dismantle a team’s morale or derail a project’s success. These encounters, coupled with my passion for psychological forensics, form the foundation of this book.

Through this work, I aim to reveal the tactics corporate sociopaths use. You’ve likely encountered some of these strategies without even realizing it. My motivation stems from seeing countless individuals suffer as unsuspecting victims of these hidden games. This book equips you with the tools to recognize and counter these strategies, so you don’t become collateral damage.

I believe in truth and the uncensored exchange of ideas. Uncomfortable truths shouldn’t be swept under the rug; acknowledging them is our duty and responsibility. We have one life, and we’re all collectively responsible for the path humanity takes. Let’s commit to growing, evolving, and sharing knowledge to improve life for everyone.

By understanding these covert tactics, you’re not just protecting yourself; you’re contributing to a more transparent and ethical corporate world. Together, we can navigate the shadows and bring these hidden strategies into the light.
