The mentality of a Sales Manager I worked for: I'm not here to provide much guidance or insights on how my salespeople could be successful. I don't even know that much about the products that we have in stock. That's for them to figure out. I'll make my team miserable every day, while I focus on trying to be dominant at the expense of others.
When the Sales Manager becomes a real estate agent: Trust me, I am very knowledgeable about the details involved in these complex transactions. I work hard to provide my clients with guidance – because the steps involved with selling a home are very important. I'll work with you and of course, I'm a really nice person.
The perspective of a mental health professional I know: I'm going to say demeaning things about my patients and think of myself as superior. I'll also say condescending statements about my own family. I'll make my patients feel dependent on my perspective. Of course, I'll act like I know what's going on and how people need to make decisions, even though I don't have much experience outside of my practice. I can easily convince my patients to doubt their relationships, work decisions, and more.
The digital overview written by the mental health professional: This writing helps to establish me as credible, insightful, and caring. I'm here to make your life better, easier and happier. Trust me and I'll guide you on what healthy looks like, even though my own personal life could be in any kind of unknown condition.
