Ep. 759: Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

My guest today is Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, the Chief Talent Scientist at Manpower Group, co-founder of Deeper Signals and Metaprofiling, and Professor of Business Psychology at University College London and Columbia University. The topic is his book Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders? (And How to Fix It). In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: The main reason for the uneven management sex ratio is our inability to discern between confidence and competence. That is, because we (people in general) commonly misinterpret displays of confidence as a sign of competence, we are fooled into believing that men are better leaders than women.  Jump in! --- I'm MICHAEL COVEL, the host of TREND FOLLOWING RADIO, and I'm proud to have delivered 10+ million podcast listens since 2012.
