Leadership and Self Deception

Why read it

• You will see why pushing harder on a stuck problem only makes it worse when you are blind to its true cause
• You will understand how fooling yourself obscures the truth about you and corrupts how you see others and your circumstances
• You will stop blaming others for problems at work and at home, and start asking how you may be part of the cause

Who it is for

• A leader whose team never changes despite repeated fixes
• A colleague stuck in a tense working relationship
• A parent or partner who blames others for family friction
