What is our agenda?
A little about our first book…
We kick off this year with a book that has sold over 1.5 Million copies. Leadership and Self-Deception: Getting out of the box. The book is from The Arbinger Institute.
An excerpt from the book:
Self-deception… blinds us to the true causes of problems, and once we’re blind, all the “solutions” we can think of will actually make matters worse. Whether at work or at home, self-deception obscures the truth about ourselves, corrupts our view of others and our circumstances, and inhibits our ability to make wise and helpful decisions. To the extent that we are self-deceived, both our happiness and our leadership are undermined at every turn…
This bestseller examines how individuals and leaders become aware of their self-deception and they can take to ‘get out of the box’.
The concepts in this book are valuable for work and home.
We’ll be covering concepts in the book, hearing your views, and talking about ways to implement the ideas for better leadership and a happier life. The expectation is that you finish reading the book before the club meeting.
Frequently asked question: What if I didn’t read the book or only read part of it?
