About Pamela
Deceptive communications and practices can cost billions, while silently putting institutions at risk. Pamela Meyer—a leading trust expert and the country’s best-known expert on deception—believes we are at an inflection point in the global deception epidemic.
Trust is not only a key factor in product purchases or partnership and employment opportunities, it’s increasingly the deciding factor.
Studies show that we encounter up to 200 lies per day.
Businesses lose an estimated seven percent of revenue to fraud each year.
Less than 5% of us trust mainstream institutions, private enterprises, government, media or NGO’s to do what’s right.
Read the room buddy. Pamela Meyer offers some advice on just that.
