Synopsis

Leadership for those always getting it right---when getting it right stands in their way. Are you looking to become a more effective, results-producing leader by adding yet another volume of insights to your already prodigious archive of “right answers”? If so, this is the wrong book. The smartest people in the room are reliable in situations where these attributes are demanded. They are masterful at determining the correct way to proceed and always having the formula or answer handy. But there are costs to this way of being. Alienated colleagues. Boredom. Disconnection. The trapping of success with none of the underlying experience of fulfillment. A gradual acceptance (resignation) that maybe it’s lonely at the top. Getting done what you must get done means that people may experience you as an asshole. No matter how “correct” they are, the smartest people in the rooms’ next level of leadership exists outside of what they already know. With simple narratives and approaches, Too Smart to Know Better, will help even the most hardened intellectual learn who he or she truly is underneath the need to perform and look smart. Beneath the safety of your outer shell is a tremendous heart. By releasing your attachment to your own head, the possibility of a deeper experience of your own life, the majesty of the world, and your next level of leadership become available.
