This third edition of an international best-seller - more than two million copies sold worldwide and translated into 33 languages - details how its powerful insights on motivation, conflict, and collaboration can benefit organizations as well as individuals.

Since its original publication in 2000, Leadership and Self-Deception has become an international word-of-mouth phenomenon. Rather than tapering off, it sells more copies every year. The guide's central insight - that the key to leadership lies not in what we do, but in who we are - has proven to have powerful implications not only for organizational leadership but in listeners’ personal lives as well.

Leadership and Self-Deception uses an entertaining story everyone can relate to about a man facing challenges at work and at home to expose the fascinating ways we blind ourselves to our true motivations and unwittingly sabotage the effectiveness of our own efforts to achieve happiness and increase happiness. We trap ourselves in a “box” of endless self-justification.

Most importantly, the audiobook shows us the way out. Listeners will discover what millions already have learned - how to consistently tap into and act on their innate sense of what’s right, dramatically improving all of their relationships.

This third edition includes new research about the self-deception gap in organizations and the keys to closing this gap. The authors offer guidance for how to assess the in-the-box and out-of-the-box mind-sets in yourself and in your organization. It also includes a sample of Arbinger’s latest best-seller, The Outward Mindset.

A must read

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on May 26, 2018

This book is an absolute must read, regardless of the area you are seeking to apply it principles. I have taken training courses that have skimmed the surface of the principles in this book, however have not delved so deeply into the root fundimentals of the ideas.
One particular phase I've heard in the industry I'm in is "My Fault Management". Others in my organization have been taught this to be, what have you dont to contribute to the problem or blame yourself for the outome of the situation. By viewing the concept in this way, they assign blame to themselves and tend to develope feelings of resentment towards others in the organization. This, I believe, helps lead them into "the box".
On the other hand, I was taught this to mean, access the situation, identify where you have contributed to the undesired results, accept responsibly for your actions and move on to come up with ways to help you and others achieve the results you / your team are hoping to accomplish in the first place. This way, I believe, reduces the chances for you to enter irnto "the box" and therefore reduces the instances of your in box-ness leading others to the same fate.
This book is absolutely pivotal in helping one build and maintain a successful operation. I look forward to reading The Arbinger Institute's other publications.

One of the rare books that created a shift in my thinking. Many books can bring insight or give advice on particular topics but this one went beyond that and made me rethink how I deal with the most important people in my life.

Thank you.
I need to read this again - and likely a 3rd time - to make sure the concepts sink into my thick scull.

This is the first self help book that truly pointed a mirror at my own relationships. It made me ashamed that I had harboured so much resentment and emotion towards others but then showed how to correct this. The observation and concepts are so strong I really believe following these teachings will be transformative to me.

I would recommend this to everyone.

Yes on all the principles and useful reminder of where we are
Does feel at the end like a sales pitch for arbinger
I think covey books go into more details on behaviours, not just principle
