Description & Specifications

Consider your office. Look around you. Leadership incompetence is everywhere. In this timely and provocative book, Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic asks two powerful questions: Why is it so easy for incompetent men to become leaders? And why is it so difficult for competent people—especially competent women—to advance?

Through decades of rigorous research, Chamorro-Premuzic highlights that although men make up the majority of leaders, their performance compared to female leaders is inadequate. Most organizations perceive leadership ability as a combination of destructive personal traits, such as arrogance and narcissism. These traits may help someone be chosen for a leadership role, but they fail once the individual assumes the position.

When capable women—and men who do not fit the stereotypes—are unfairly overlooked, we all suffer the consequences. The result is a deeply flawed system that rewards arrogance instead of humility, and loudness instead of wisdom. There is a better way. With clarity and vigor, Chamorro-Premuzic shows us what it truly takes to lead and how new systems and processes can help us put the right people in positions of power.
