FEATURED PRODUCT Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders? Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic 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? 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. Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders? shows us what it really takes to lead and how new systems and processes can help us put the right people in charge. $25.00 Buy Now
