Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?
(And How to Fix It)
Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic
Why are most leaders men, and why are many of them incompetent? In this thought-provoking book, Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic delves into the destructive personality traits often associated with leadership potential, like overconfidence and narcissism. Through decades of research, he shows that these traits not only undermine success, but they also block competent women and non-stereotypical men from advancing. This flawed system negatively impacts us all. Chamorro-Premuzic presents a better way forward with new systems and processes that prioritize competence, humility, and wisdom in leadership roles.

@kimbui I highly recommend this book. I promise you will not read one chapter without a very vivid image of a bad leader in mind 😒 – source
