Product Information

Leadership and Self-Deception is the first book to identify a single, underlying cause of every form of leadership failure. Through the story of Tom - a shluck in his manager's words - readers discover that identifying and treating individual leadership problems as if they were separate and distinct is t eugh to transform people into successful leaders. The authors suggest that the key to leadership lies t in what we do, but in how we are. They explore this compelling secret: Self-deception is the central player and trap underlying all leadership failures, relationship issues, and performance problems in organizations. Leaders who live in the box of self-deception are trapped: they cant lead, matter how hard they try and matter how many skills and techniques they employ. With convincing examples, the authors show clearly how self-deception operates and how to overcome it. While other books cover people skills, this one goes deeper, fully illuminating the secret to leadership success.
