Hubristic leaders - intoxicated as they are with power, praise and success - behave in ways that, if left unchecked, invite unintended and unforeseen negative consequences which impact destructively on individuals, industries, economies and nations. Despite numerous examples throughout history of hubris' destructive consequences, it nonetheless appears to be an ever-present and growing danger. Leaders seem blind to the hazards of hubris and oblivious to the lessons of history. Prevention is better than cure and understanding the nature of the hubris hazard and the associated risk factors will help leaders and managers improve their personal performance and avoid derailment and, even more importantly, protect the wellbeing of employees and the resilience of their organizations over the long term. This book explains the characteristics, causes and consequences of hubris, and shows how to combat the significant hazard it poses to managers, leaders, organizations and civil society.

It will also be useful for business and executive coaches and leadership trainers and developers"--
