FORBES – Self-assured leaders often appear in the news, but their confidence can sometimes mask dangerous hubris. Hubris leads to overestimating abilities, ignoring others’ input, and taking reckless risks. To prevent this, leaders should balance confidence with humility, actively seek feedback, and value others’ contributions. Cultivating self-awareness and self-control through regular self-reflection helps maintain this balance. By recognizing limitations and appreciating team input, leaders can avoid isolation, poor decisions, and ethical pitfalls, ensuring long-term effectiveness and respect.
