There is a fair amount of psychology used in advertising - however, psychology is a field of medicine; medical ethics dictates fully informed consent of a patient before use of medical techniques.

If people are unaware of the basics of Neurolinguistic Programming, they can’t consent to be subjected to psychological techniques. If someone is a minor, they cannot consent to be subjected to psychological techniques.

How does one remain competitive without violating psychological ethics?

Working in Big4 as a senior but haven’t been promoted to manager yet(been here 3 years) and doesn’t look like i will be promoted this year either.

I’m starting a financial analyst position at a major hospital system in my area soon and want to stick with that for a couple years before making a transition but was curious if I just don’t have the right experience for a role in advisory.
