Given that sociopathy/psychopathy is an actual pathology and has some organic basis, I'm not really sure the title is accurate. I don't think anyone has indicated that sociopathy is developed during your adulthood.

Getting real for a second, all jokes aside, sociopaths are a real and severe threat to society. You should shun and avoid sociopaths at all costs. You might be tempted into thinking "but I need my CEO to be...". The answer is NO. Such a CEO will do nothing, add no value, and ultimately steal all the money of the company, and not feel the least bit guilty or remorseful. Because sociopaths don't have those feelings.

So unite brethren against the non-human sociopaths among us!
