📚 The Product People book originated from a desire to help people find their story with product, design, and leadership. It aims to offer a fresh perspective on staying human in a soulless corporate world and possibly have a good laugh in the process. Here's an excerpt from the book: "Positive toxicity leads to self-deception, and it’s happening at scale. You’ll find people responding to distress (e.g., layoffs) with false reassurances rather than empathy. When that happens, rational causation (making decisions based on reason and logic, rather than on mere emotions or impulses) shuts down, and it’s a win for many “profits before people” organizations. Why? Because they’ve managed to convince the same people they’ve undermined to praise, worship, and glorify their brand." #ProductPeople #ProductDesign #Leadership #StayHuman #CorporateCulture #EmpathyInBusiness #PositiveToxicity #SelfDeception #RationalCausation #ProfitsBeforePeople #FreshPerspective #Storytelling #HumanConnection #WorkplaceWellness #CorporateSoul #Design #LeadershipDevelopment #BusinessEthics #Empowerment
