  • Most people agree that lying is a socially undesirable behavior. So why do almost all of us still do it? This talk will explore the role of lying in personal relationships, business, and everyday life, and offer an explanation for why lying is such a fundamental, if not particularly positive, behavior. The answer is both simple and profound.
    Dr. Kim Serota is a Special Instructor at the Oakland University in the School of Business Administration. Dr. Serota was trained as a social science researcher focusing on persuasion and politics. Throughout his career, Dr. Serota has worked at Ford Motor Company as an Analyst, Volkswagen of America as the Manager of Marketing Research for Porsche, Volkswagen, and Audi, and later joining the marketing research firm Allison-Fisher as Partner and Senior Vice President in charge of European brands. Upon retirement, Dr. Serota started his own marketing consulting firm and returned to teaching at Oakland University. His research program has focused on deceptive communication and deception detection

    "No matter how much kindliness ye may expend upon the liar, he will but lie the more, for he believeth you to be deceived, while ye understand him but too well, and only remain silent out of your extreme compassion." ~ Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

    Lies have a way of harming the author more deeply than the intended target. His ending does resonate. Deception diminishes us all.

      He’s just saying lying is the easy way out. It’s more convenient. It’s a way for people to feel superior. It’s like a disease these days. Laziness.

      Agree, boring talk.
      Coming to lying:
      And narcissists lie all the time to gaslight their victims with the intent to confuse them, tear them apart, lost their self confidence, self worth, defame, etc. to exploit them. They are pathological liars. This lie is very very damaging☹️😠

    This guy state that lying is manipulative communication. It should be noted that one can tell the true with the intention of manipulating people also.

    Polite, social lies. Deception is social lubrication. People would be at war constantly if everyone always spoke and acted on the truth.
    Lying for polite purposes is absolutely necessary.
