Publisher's summary

Too Proud to Lead provides essential advice on how to avoid hubristic behavior that can endanger businesses, as well as cope with arrogant overconfidence in others in the workplace.

Laying out the dangers of arrogant overconfidence for both individuals and organizations, Too Proud to Lead explores the economic and psychological costs of hubristic behavior and argues for a new approach to leadership in order to avoid the pitfalls of hubris. Punctuated with award-winning research and practical solutions against the systemic hubris plaguing today's organizations, the authors reveal exactly how confidence can sour into overconfidence-and why it can happen to anyone.

With this easily-absorbed book, packed with key insights, listeners acquire the essential arsenal of tools for understanding, identifying, anticipating and coping with hubris, in both themselves and in the workplace, leading to better lives and sustained success for years to come. Too Proud to Lead guides listeners on how to: speak up when no one wants to listen; challenge the status quo; create open and transparent cultures that promote inclusivity; foster positive recognition within an organization; and remove hubris and harassment from their workplace and life.
