We're told that the key to success in life and business is confidence: believe in yourself, and the world is your oyster. But building confidence can be a challenging task. And, as leading psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic argues confidence can actually get in the way of achievement - self-esteem is nothing without the competence, the core skills, to back it up. Confidence is feeling capable. Competence is being capable. None of the figures whose success is put down to supreme self-belief - Barack Obama, Madonna, Muhammad Ali - could have achieved their goals without the hard-won skills (and years of training) behind the confidence mask. Successful people are confident because of their success, and not the other way around. Whether you want to improve your social skills, get a promotion or that all-important first job, this game-changing exploration of how to build success, in the mould of Robert Cialdini's Influence, Susan Cain's Quiet and Steven Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, will change the way you think about achievement.

Retailers are using AI to predict our behavior and desires. Rogue actors are using AI to persuade us with Twitter bots and fake news. Companies are using AI to hire us—or not.This is just the beginning. As AI becomes smarter and more humanlike, our societies, our economies, and our humanity will undergo the most dramatic changes we've seen since the Agricultural Revolution.

Dieses aktuelle und provokante Buch stellt zwei Fragen: Warum ist es für inkompetente Männer so leicht, Chef zu werden? Und warum ist es so schwer für kompetente Menschen – besonders für kompetente Frauen – aufzusteigen? Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic zeigt auf der Basis aktuellster wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse, dass Männer statistisch schlechtere Führungskräfte als Frauen sind. Die meisten Unternehmen und Organisationen verwechseln aber destruktive Persönlichkeitseigenschaften wie Narzissmus und ein überzogenes Selbstbewusstsein mit Führungspotential. Diese Eigenschaften mögen dabei helfen, einen Führungsposten zu bekommen, sie sind aber absolut kontraproduktiv wenn es darum geht, ein Team zum Erfolg zu führen. Wenn kompetente Frauen und wirklich kompetente Männer bei der Besetzung von Führungspositionen ungerechtfertigter Weise übersehen werden, haben wir alle unter den Folgen zu leiden. Es gibt einen besseren Weg. Mit deutlicher Sprache und klarer Argumentation zeigt Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic in diesem Buch, was eine gute Führungskraft ausmacht und wie neue, digitale Systeme uns helfen können, den richtigen Menschen Verantwortung für andere Menschen zu übertragen. „Vielleicht ist die eigentliche Frage ja nicht, warum es Frauen so schwer haben, Karriere zu machen, sondern vielmehr, warum es mediokren Männern so leicht fällt, aufzusteigen.“
