DESCRIPTION:
"A great read for all humans who face challenges with other humanssomething we all do every day." according to Greg Frucci. I began reading "Leadership and Self-Deception" because I am on a leadership track where I work full time thinking this book would help me in my endeavor. As I read the first few pages, I realized the same thing was happening to me that happened when I read, "The Anatomy of Peace: Resolving the Heart of Conflict" also by The Arbinger Instituteawareness of how I am with others and being with them as a fellow human.I do not wish to give anything away, but I will say this: "getting out of the box" is not what most people think of when you hear the clichethere is a higher meaning contained within the pages, so pl. A great way to bring up and work through a difficult subject Robert D. Hodge As an executive coach, I use books as neutral way to get a person to think things through more deeply. Self-deception is a tough subject. It is not the role of a coach to make such judgments, yet it may be appropriate to provide material to challenge a person.This book was recommended to me by a fellow who was seriously self-deceptive. He and I have since recommended it to many others.Unlike many unlikable books that dwell too much on story more than bullet points, I found myself engrossed in this story. Living it out with the author over several days, maybe weeks of reading, helped bring it to life.This is a. "Incredible Book!" according to CalGirl. Not just for those who own businesses! Great for people who have a desire to be better spouses, parents, friends, get along better with co-workers, people in any environment (church, school clubs, etc.) All around great book told in a "story-line" format! I was told about this book by a friend & I absolutely recommend this book! It's a "must-read"!
We deceive ourselves into thinking we're doing the right thing for the right reason, but people won't follow a leader whose motives are selfish. Most personal and organizational problems are the result of a little-known phenomenon called "self-deception". The tricky thing is, we don't know that our motivation is flawed.
