Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders
(And How to Fix It)
Look around your office. Turn on the TV. Incompetent leadership is everywhere, and there's no denying that most of these leaders are men.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 hard for competent people--especially competent women--to advance?Marshaling 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.When 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.There 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.

Don't Be Yourself
The surprising science of why being authentic holds you back--from the author of Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?"Just be yourself" might be the worst advice you've ever received.For years, we've been told that authenticity is the key to success--that we should be true to ourselves, tune out others' opinions, and lead with unwavering genuineness. This feel-good message has spawned countless self-help books, leadership seminars, and viral social media posts.There's just one problem: science says it's wrong.Drawing on decades of research, renowned psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic reveals an uncomfortable truth: our obsession with authenticity is backfiring. From Silicon Valley's authenticity worship to failed diversity programs, he exposes how our fixation on our "true selves" undermines both individual and organizational success.The most successful people aren't those who rigidly "stay true to themselves." They're the ones who adapt and evolve, largely by paying a great deal of attention to how others see them and adjusting their behavior to the requirements of each situation. The evidence is clear: when we focus less on expressing our authentic selves and more on understanding others, we become better humans.Blending the latest revelations in psychology with razor-sharp cultural critique, Don't Be Yourself doesn't just challenge conventional wisdom--it offers a playbook for long-lasting career success.

Por Que Tantos Hombres Incompetentes Se Convierten En Lideres?
En este oportuno y provocativo libro, Tomás Chamorro-Premuzic hace dos preguntas impactantes: ¿Por qué a los hombres incompetentes les resulta tan fácil llegar a ser líderes? Y, ¿por qué es tan difícil que avancen las personas competentes (sobre todo, si son mujeres)?Tras décadas de investigación rigurosa, Chamorro-Premuzic señala que, pese a que los hombres constituyan la mayoría de los líderes, tienen peores resultados en comparación con las líderes femeninas. De hecho, la mayor parte de las organizaciones equiparan el potencial de liderazgo con determinados rasgos de personalidad destructivos, como narcisismo y exceso de confianza. Es decir, estos rasgos pueden ayudar a que alguien sea seleccionado para un papel de liderazgo, pero son contraproducentes cuando la persona obtiene el puesto.Cuando las mujeres competentes (y los hombres que no encajan en el estereotipo) no son tenidos en cuenta, todos sufrimos las consecuencias. El resultado es un sistema profundamente defectuoso que recompensa ser arrogante en lugar de humilde y ser gritón en lugar de sabio.
