Dopamine is the neurotransmitter of desire. Norepinephrine is the neurotransmitter of tension. Together they add up to attention.

Observing power rituals in business situations—such as acting deferential, engaging in meaningless small talk, or letting yourself be told what to do—reinforces the alpha status of your target and confirms your subordinate position. Do not do this!

The alpha enjoys most of the attention in a social interaction, even when he’s not demanding it. And when he does demand it, the alpha captures the group’s attention immediately. When he makes a statement, it’s regarded as true, and the claims go unchallenged.

When people know they're being watched, they perform. No audience, no urgency. Creating that pressure is an art. Set the stage, make the stakes clear, and let everyone know their reputation is on the line. Next time a deal stalls, ask yourself: "Where's the social pressure?"
