Unlock the Power of Self-Awareness: The Essential Playbook for Thriving in an Unaware World
Nominated as one of the 2019 Thinkers50 Radar group
Research shows that self-awareness is the meta-skill of the 21st century - the foundation for high performance, smart choices, and lasting relationships. Unfortunately, we are remarkably poor judges of ourselves and how we come across, and it's rare to get candid, objective feedback from colleagues, employees, and even friends and family. But we can ALL learn to be more self-aware.
In Insight, organizational psychologist Dr Tasha Eurich integrates hundreds of studies with her own research and work in the Fortune 500 world. She shatters conventional assumptions about what it takes to truly know ourselves - like why introspection isn't a bullet train to insight, how experience can hinder self-knowledge, and just how far others will go to avoid telling us the truth about ourselves. Through stories of people who've made dramatic gains in self-awareness, Eurich offers surprising secrets, techniques and strategies to help readers do the same - and thereby improve their work performance, career satisfaction, leadership potential, relationships, and more.
At a time when self-awareness matters more than ever, Insight is the essential guide for surviving and thriving in an unaware world.
