Most leaders think confidence comes from competence Dr. Nick Egan argues the opposite.

In this episode of The Executive Commute, Jayson Krause and executive coach Dr. Nick Egan unpack what real confidence is, why many leaders build brittle confidence based on competence, and how authentic confidence comes from internal resourcefulness instead.

They explore why panic shuts down possibility, why "fake it till you make it" often backfires, and how leaders can develop confidence that holds up in unpredictable situations.

Dr. Nick Egan is an executive coach and the author of Shift: The Art of Transforming Limitations, working with senior leaders across organizations including SpaceX, Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta.
