Why do incompetent men become leaders and what can we do about it?

from LLC- Ladies Leadership Coalition · host Ladies Leadership Coalition

Nicole Glenn and Nathalie Mathis host Bill Paul and dissect why so many incompetent males become leaders and what we can do about it. We realize that male leaders are not one size fits all, but we definitely get candid about society, psychology, charisma, competence, and the confidence that contributes to this phenomenon. In our discussion, Bill Paul brought up the topic of soft skills and how women outranked men in almost every soft skill category. This is not to say that men can't have these skills or that all women will have these skills. But it's important to account for these skillsets as they can be necessary for leadership roles to build trust, growth, and productive work culture. At the end of the day, it should be about hiring the best person for the job and making sure as a hiring leadership, you ask yourself, "Are they competent, or am I swayed by their confidence?"
