Turn on the TV. Incompetent leadership is everywhere, and there's no denying that most of these leaders are men.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eIn 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 hard for competent people--especially competent women--to advance?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eMarshaling decades of rigorous research, Chamorro-Premuzic points out that although men make up a majority of leaders, they underperform when compared with female leaders. In fact, most organizations equate leadership potential with a handful of destructive personality traits, like overconfidence and narcissism. In other words, these traits may help someone get selected for a leadership role, but they backfire once the person has the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eWhen competent women--and men who don't fit the stereotype--are unfairly overlooked, we all suffer the consequences. The result is a deeply flawed system that rewards arrogance rather than humility, and loudness rather than wisdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eThere is a better way. With clarity and verve, Chamorro-Premuzic shows us what it really takes to lead and how new systems and processes can help us put the right people in charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"INGRAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44459653562505,"sku":"9781633696327","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0376\/3057\/4729\/files\/f30c20e238a243b827725bac618c9659f0f14ac7.jpg?v=1756987383","url":"https:\/\/thebookmarkpr.com\/products\/why-do-so-many-incompetent-men-become-leaders","provider":"The Bookmark Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
