LinkedIn sau opiniile a 300-500 de milioane de oameni. Conteaza ?

LinkedIn este o retea sociala aparte prin faptul ca o mare parte dintre membrii ei  sunt persoane reale , civilizate, educate si  instruite care respecta regulile dialogului civilizat ( excludem din start agentii de influenta , diversionistii, hartuitorii, extremistii, trolii, botii si conturile false care din nefericire exista si aici ).
Membrii care conteaza au o identitate certa si o ruta sociala vizibila si favorizeaza dialogul real ( un dialog intre doua pseudonime pe Internet fara chip si fara nume este absurd prin definitie ).
In sfarsit , LinkedIn este o retea sociala credibila unde oamenii din orice tara pot fi la curent cu stiri reale din cele mai diverse domenii  respectand regulile comunicarii, dialogului si polemicii civilizate si pot schimba liber opinii despre mersul lumii, politicii, societatilor , culturii , comunitatii internationale si umanitatii ( dezinformarile , diversiunile si stirile false sunt taxate aproape imediat ). 

Poate sunt exagerat de optimist, dar consider ca aceasta retea sociala este echivalentul ONU pentru oamenii civilizati din orice tara pentru ca este singura platforma care poate juca acest rol ( Uniunea Europeana ar fi trebuit sa creeze un echivalent , dar nu a facut-o ). 
Potentialul acestei retele este imens prin prin numarul imens de membrii inregistrati deja si prin algoritmul de generare al retelelor sociale :

• Membri Înregistrați (Total): Peste 1,3 miliarde.
• Utilizatori Activi Lunar : Peste 310 milioane de persoane utilizează activ platforma în fiecare lună.

In acest context, marea problema a lumii noastre este fractura uriasa dintre cetateni  si cei care ii reprezinta la nivelul tarii lor ( politicienii , guvernul, statul ) respectiv la nivelul comunitatii internationale ( ONU , institutiile si organizatiile internationale ).

Situatia se repeta periodic la nivel global. Intre aspiratiile oamenilor si actiunile politicienilor si institutiilor globale exista un decalaj care persista si chiar se adanceste in mod continuu.

Scena este deja una clasica . Milioane de oameni pot manifesta in strada impotriva unui grup minuscul de politicieni ascunsi in spatele guvernelor , parlamentelor si birocratiei , iar la nivel global in spatele institutiilor si organizatiilor internationale care nu-si respecta propriile norme de functionare.

In esenta, politicienii ,statele , guvernele, parlamentele , institutiile si organizatiile internationale clameaza necesitatea unor legi si norme pe care isi bazeaza existenta si pe care ar trebui sa le respecte , dar pe care le incalca ( Carta ONU , etc. ) , iar cetatenii obisnuiti sunt singurii care platesc pretul pentru incalcarea lor, uneori cu viata.

In sfarsit , a doua mare problema a lumii contemporane este schimbarea raportului dintre spatiul real si spatiul virtual . 

Lumea a devenit de multa vreme un sat global in care procesele , actiunile , tensiunile si razboaiele  din spatiul real devin din ce in ce mai interconectate ( efectul fluture ) , mai vizibile si  se muta accelerat in spatiul virtual unde se iau deja cele mai multe decizii ,iar fundamentele moralei umane devin optionale. 

Intrebarea este daca tarile, societatiile , civilizatiile si lumea in ansamblu aleg calea civilizarii si umanizarii si respectarea valorilor civilizatiei si umanitatii sau se inscriu in spirala decivilizarii si dezumanizarii .

Un simplu cetatean care respecta legile si normele  din orice tara civilizata nu se poate angaja nici portar la o scoala daca are cazier juridic, dar daca are condamnari penale poate ajunge primar, parlamentar, ministru sau presedinte . 

Paradoxul care ne da fiori este acela ca soarta unor intregi comunitati, tari , continente si a  intregii lumi depinde de stranutul si mofturile unor persoane care de multe ori au o palarie mult prea mare pentru capul lor si aceasta este o anomalie a istoriei care trebuie rezolvata in interesul umanitatii . 

Oamenii nu sunt egali intre ei (din fericire ), dar legile trebuie respectate de catre toti , nu numai de catre unii.

In ultima instanta , dincolo de politicieni,state , guverne, parlamente , institutii si organizatii internationale exista o majoritate tacuta la nivel global care respecta normele politice ,juridice,  economice,  sociale, culturale , religioase si morale din tarile lor  si prin efortul careia functioneaza  toate guvernele , statele si institutiile internationale . Aceasta majoritate tacuta  nu are drept de decizie , dar are sau ar trebui sa aiba dreptul la opinie. 

In acest caz ne aflam in fata unei situatii inedite. Stim ce vor si ce fac politicienii,statele , guvernele, parlamentele , institutiile  si organizatiile internationale pentru ca ne spun asta in fiecare zi, dar nu stim ce vor si ce aspiratii au cele 300 de milioane de oameni care sunt activi in fiecare luna pe LinkedIn ca sa nu ne gandim la 500 de milioane  sau chiar mai mult care au si ei o opinie care poate conta.

Provocarea este fascinanta. O imensa comunitate umana  respecta valorile civilizatiei , umanitatii si fundamentele moralei umane exista si asteapta o cale de manifestare spre deosebire de politicienii care au provocat deja doua razboaie mondiale si au pus temelia celui de-al treilea.

Psychological testing business: 12 companies, 186 million lei (36 million euro) in public contracts

                                      

An analysis based on SICAP data and public documents indicates a highly concentrated market, where demand is supported by legal obligation, and market access depends on approval and regulatory mechanisms.

The Romanian psychological testing market, largely supported by public funds, has generated contracts worth a cumulative amount of over 186 million lei, the equivalent of approximately 38 million euros, in recent years. Centralized data from SICAP, corroborated with decisions of the Romanian College of Psychologists and public information regarding the structure of some companies in the field, paint the picture of an extremely concentrated market, controlled by a small number of players.

The investigation conducted by Cătălin Antohe and Sorin Ghica raises a relevant question for the area of ​​public policy and competition: to what extent the current regulatory architecture of the psychology profession favors the emergence of a closed market, in which the same actors are simultaneously present in the academic area, in professional structures and in the companies that provide the tests used by the state.

A market with guaranteed demand

Unlike other service markets, psychological testing has a major structural advantage: demand is guaranteed by law. Psychological assessments are mandatory in multiple sectors of the state, from the structures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the penitentiary system, to the army, the judiciary, public health and education.

The consequence is obvious: public institutions cannot give up on such purchases. Under these conditions, the market does not function according to the usual logic of free competition, in which demand fluctuates and suppliers compete aggressively for contracts. On the contrary, we are talking about a market with recurring and predictable institutional consumption.

According to the data presented in the investigation, 12 companies appear in SICAP , with a total of 7,076 contracts and an aggregate value of approximately 186 million lei .

High concentration and small number of suppliers

The data indicates a significant concentration of revenues around a few groups of companies. According to the investigation, three companies controlled by Doru Dima — Great People Inside SRL, Dima Consulting Group SRL and ASK 4 IT SRL — together accumulate over 134 million lei from public contracts.

Another important pole is the one associated with Dragoș Iliescu , through a portfolio of five companies — D&D Consultants Grup SRL, 42 Organizational Assessment SRL, BRIO Teste Educăționale SA, D&D Research SRL and GIUNTI Psychometrics Romania SRL — totaling over 31.5 million lei .

In addition to these groups, other relevant providers are also appearing on the market, such as Cognitrom SRL , associated with Mircea Miclea, Psiho Proiect SRL , managed by Alin Florin Sava, as well as companies such as HART Human Resource Consulting or RTS Romanian Psychological Testing .

The overall picture is that of a highly concentrated market, in which an overwhelming part of the value of public contracts is absorbed by a limited number of economic operators.

Who buys?

The list of beneficiaries of these contracts shows how deeply psychological testing is integrated into the functioning of the state. According to the analysis, among the buyers are institutions from the penitentiary system, structures from the national security area, municipal and county clinical hospitals, public health institutions, as well as educational units and county centers of educational resources and assistance.

In other words, we are not talking about a marginal segment, but about a procurement infrastructure spread across almost the entire public administration.

The decisive role of endorsement

The central point of this market is not only the obligation of purchase, but also the mechanism by which certain instruments come to be officially used. In practice, a psychological test has institutional relevance only if it is endorsed by the Romanian College of Psychologists.

Here arises one of the most sensitive themes raised by the investigation: the overlap between the area of ​​academic validation, the area of ​​professional regulation, and the commercial area.

The authors claim that some of the influential actors in the field occupy or have occupied, over time, key positions in universities, in academic evaluation bodies such as ARACIS and CNATDCU, in structures of the College of Psychologists and, at the same time, in companies that market psychological tests.

This overlap does not automatically constitute a violation of the law, but it raises legitimate questions regarding potential conflicts of interest, the compatibility of functions, and the degree of real competition in the market.

Three levels of influence

In the synthesized form of the investigation, the system operates on three levels.

The first is the academic level , where assessment instruments gain scientific and professional legitimacy. The second is the administrative and regulatory level , dominated by the role of the Romanian College of Psychologists, the institution that establishes professional norms, approves tests, and grants the right to practice. The third is the commercial level , where private companies actually provide the tests and collect the revenues generated by their mandatory use.

It is precisely this continuity between validation, regulation and commercialization that gives consistency to the investigation and fuels the suspicion that the market operates in a closed framework, difficult to challenge from the outside.

The CSM case and the logic of the captive market

An example cited in the investigation is that of the Superior Council of Magistracy, which recurrently purchases certain psychological tests intended exclusively for internal use. In such situations, market competition becomes limited not only by the mandatory institutional demand, but also by the specialized nature of the instrument and the existence of a single supplier or a very small number of approved suppliers.

This means that, in certain segments, the selection is not necessarily made between substitutable products, but between solutions already validated in a restricted professional and administrative circuit.

Key actors in the system

The investigation also focuses on the profile of the main actors in the field.

Doru Dima emerges as one of the most important players in the area of ​​psychological and human resources services, with an extensive portfolio of companies and a significant presence in public contracts.

Dragoș Iliescu , a professor at the University of Bucharest, is presented as one of the most influential figures in applied psychology in Romania, with international notoriety in the area of ​​standardized testing and assessment. In parallel, his associated companies have a consistent presence in the test supply market.

Alin Florin Sava , from the West University of Timisoara, is presented as a relevant actor in both the academic and institutional areas, as well as in the commercial one, through the company Psiho Proiect.

Mircea Miclea , the founder of Cognitrom and former Minister of Education, is another major name in the field, with influence in the area of ​​cognitive assessment and educational policies.

Also mentioned in the investigation is Anca Dobrean , associated with the clinical and educational instruments segment for children.

The fundamental question

The real stakes of this investigation are not just the financial size of the contracts, but the way the market is constructed. When demand is imposed by law, when supply is filtered by professional advice, and the relevant actors are simultaneously connected to the academic, regulatory, and commercial areas, the question arises whether we can still talk about a competitive market in the classical sense of the term.

For the state, the issue is one of efficiency and governance: is there enough real competition for public institutions to benefit from the best solutions at fair costs?

For the profession, the issue is one of autonomy and balance: how open is the system to new providers, new tools, and a real challenge to the status quo?

Conclusion

The SICAP data analyzed by the authors indicate a market of significant size, recurrently financed from public money and concentrated around a small core of companies and influential individuals. Beyond the numbers, the case raises sensitive issues for the Romanian state: competition, transparency, institutional integrity and the clear demarcation between regulation and commercial interest.

The investigation does not just provide an X-ray of a niche market, but opens a broader discussion about how functional monopolies are built in a public system where legal obligation and regulatory control can transform a profession into an extremely profitable business.

A stunning geopolitical double standard

For years, what was forbidden to most was allowed to some. It all comes down to George Orwell’s brilliant aphorism, which defined the monstrous essence of communism and fascism: “All are equal, but some are more equal than others” (Animal Farm). The interesting question is whether this geopolitical double standard and pathological hypocrisy represent an Iranian, Russian, or both model, because, inexplicably, this paradox has been cyclically repeated on the scale of recent history. The elites of Iran, Russia, Hamas, and those of communist countries that preached hatred of the West and the US have always sent their children to benefit from all the advantages of the world criticized by the regime in their countries. 

Recently, the US has broken this taboo and started hunting the Iranian elite and its children:
