1. What is corporate psychopath?

The documentary's first third focuses on a politician, accountant, boss, and CEO
who has been labeled a "corporate psychopath." According to psychologists Robert
Hare and Paul Babiak, these people lack emotional intelligence, empathy, and
conscience in social interactions; brain scans reveal that they lack the function to
understand the pain of others and therefore are unable to sympathize.

A corporate psychopath is someone who has a psychopathic personality but

works in a company, industry, or organization. They are not what we often consider
them to be in society, such as a serial murderer. Furthermore, it is said that
psychopaths lack morality not because they lack the moral ability to consider the
distinction between right and wrong, but because the interpersonal bond is broken.

2. What are the characteristics or profile of a corporate psychopath?

The characteristics or profile of a corporate psychopath are lack of empathy, lack

of concern about other people when they just see other people as mere objects, they're
egotistical, self-centered, there are parts of limbi region emotional brain amygdala don't
work the same as other people, lack of remorse about what they've done knowing
exactly what they've done Corporate psychopaths do not look or seem evil; they are out
to deceive and exploit you, and they are charming and easy to like. Moreover, they are
using the Stanislavski technique, which is where they are really feeling it and he can
project what is inside outside, and the response is most likely not. They are using facial
gestures and hand motions, body language that appears relevant to an internal
emotional state but is artificial.
3. Why do we have corporate psychopaths? Give at least 3 examples of
psychopaths in the documentary and research on what they have done to
considered as one.

In the real world, psychopaths fit in seamlessly with the society through
education; they learn to relate to the atmosphere, work like everyone else, and learn to
fake feelings and body language in order to get by. Behind their charismatic image,
though, is generally an intensely egoistic, self-centered, and narcissistic mentality that
views and exploits people as objects to accomplish their goal; this is what makes
psychopaths dangerous. They gain confidence by performing flawlessly and develop an
apparent unbreakable bond with their subject, but when they wish to terminate the
relationship, whether it be company, partnership, family, or personal, the other person is
left wounded or even hurt.

One aspect discussed is the notion of society to exhibit traits of psychopath,

indifferent and uncaring, mainly due to the busy multitasking lifestyle of most people. As
the consequence, some goes to the extreme exhaustion with high stress level or
depressant that they’re needed to be prescribed with ‘anti-depressant’ such as Prozac
to boost the serotonin level, the feel-good hormone. However, frequent use of this drug
could lead to the person’s obliviousness of others feeling, which is the most dangerous
trait of a psychopath. Overall, the documentary draws strong connection with several
topics covered in class, especially the mental disorder and social psychology, and
provides a more in-depth evaluation of one of the most common psychologically
disorder in society today.

4. How can organization spare itself from corporate psychopaths?

Organizations can track and distinguish true high performers from parasitic
psychopaths by using control mechanisms. I am Fishead, a documentary film, offers a
wealth of detail in terms of describing the issue and explaining the catastrophic
implications. Examining the general population, it has now been able to identify the
similarities in the apathetic and careless attitude that bring many people closer to being
psychopath, even while it does not offer the audience a definite end on how to avoid
being psychopath, it encourages people to be more pro-active and speak out instead of
suffering silently while they are treated wrongly by the figure that they called a
psychopath.
