The Pygmalion effect is a psychological phenomenon in which the expectations of others affect a person's performance or behavior. It is also known as the self-fulfilling prophecy, because people often tend to live up to the expectations that others have of them. In this episode, we explore what the Pygmalion effect is, how it works, and why it's important. We'll also share examples of the effect in action and discuss how we can use it to our advantage.
