Research finds that when a group experiences abuse from a leader, members may recognize the behavior but stay silent due to fear of retaliation. However, alternate evidence suggests that groups can also develop blind spots that prevent them from recognizing the leader’s abusive behavior. This paper explains how group characteristics and dynamics contribute to these blind spots. By examining these dynamics, we aim tohighlight why groups mayunknowingly tolerate abusive leaders and to provide a deeper understanding of the influence of group dynamics and leadership.
Why do groups tolerate abusive leaders?

Back to #Paris.
kyle_maclachlan Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn't recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I'd ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, l've lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We'd talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he's gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything.
This is a beautiful tribute.
"Modern technology interacts with human psychology to create a funhouse mirror version of social norms. [...] Norms generated on social media often tend to be more extreme than offline norms which can create false perceptions of norms–known as pluralistic ignorance."

Four years ago today, a crowd of (mostly) Trump supporters attacked the Capitol building. Here's what we found about how empowerment processes drove the event:

“It turns out that the anatomical connections we make with certain emotions and feelings… may be more universal than you’d think. In fact, people have been making very similar statements about their bodies for about 3,000 years.”
