There were not really any companies that I recognized as having a psychological connection. Instead I chose one that had a literary connection (Amazon.com) since Dear Abby is iconic in periodicals, and the other I chose was Allstate because it is an insurance company, and many times insurance companies are the reason that people can afford to see a therapist. It seemed that an insurance company and Amazon.com may not have too much in common, but low and behold they are connected by only three people, and two of those people sit on the boards of quite a few other companies (4 and 6). So, it seems that despite the expected differences between the two companies, they are obviously easily connected due to the networking of certain individuals.
