I was a bit surprised reading this from one of the financial related blogs I frequent.
It is rather encouraging that the awareness of psychopathy is getting around. Thank you Laura and the team for that! :)

In his post there is a large quote from Robert Hare's book, "Psychopaths Among Us" but is nicely prefaced to put the quote in the context of the stock exchange/financial world and noting that the stock exchange/financial world is one of the "positions of power" that a psychopath gravitates towards. The anecdote about Nicole Kidman consulting Hare about how to play a psychopath is also a nice touch to ease into the article.
The author of the blog also wraps up his post very well with a cautionary word towards his readers to not see problem as a nail when handed a hammer, which also is touched on by Hare in the quote where non-trained clinicians misuse the PCL-R and are probably misdiagnosing their intended "targets".
