  "account": "Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, a University College London professor of business psychology, firmly opposes the popular mantra \"Be yourself\" in the workplace. He argues that the expectation of unfettered spontaneity can lead to unprofessional behavior. Successful leaders, he explains, are skilled at strategically presenting different versions of themselves depending on the context, goal, and audience. Emotional intelligence is key to this, involving both social awareness of how one's actions affect others and self-control to manage impact. Leaders should act as skilled actors, playing their role in a way that maintains authenticity while remaining professional.",
