Maximize Your Influence

Episode 523 - Selling of The Eiffel Tower - The Great Con


Listen Later

I was reading this great article in Harvard Business Review, which focuses on how we CAN'T recognize our weaknesses. The other challenge is that most people feel responsible for their successes (internal), and external factors are the cause of their failures.

Leaders and managers today must be more aware of others' needs due to the challenges of a global pandemic, a fragile economy, and social unrest. Many workplace challenges stem not from bad intentions but from leaders' lack of awareness of how their actions affect others. Self-awareness in leadership/management is crucial.

Don't Get Blindsided by Your Blind Spots

Join me for this week's podcast, where I focus on self-perception bias, the Wobegon effect, and improving our self-perception radar. I will also talk about the persuasion lessons of the great persuasion con of selling the Eiffel Tower.

Discover why the con can be so persuasive. Selling of The Eiffel Tower - The Great Con.
