People and Projects Podcast: Project Management Podcast PPP 185 | Leadership and Self-Deception, with Mitch Warner from The Arbinger Institute
You know that boss that's driving you crazy? Or that stakeholder? We all have them--people who most charitably could be referred to as challenges. If only we could get them to change, then we could deliver our project, or make progress as a team. If only we could change them....
You might not say it that way, but when we face obstacles in the form of people, we're apt to consider them the problem. But what if I told you there's a way to improve the likelihood of getting that other person to change? And it starts with you?
In this episode we're talking with Mitch Warner from The Arbinger Institute about their book Leadership and Self-Deception: Getting Out of the Box. It's a must-read book that I look forward to introducing you to in this episode.
Learn more about The Arbinger Institute at http://arbingerinstitute.com/. Also, here's where you can find the other books that Mitch mentions in the interview:
- The Anatomy of Peace. This is a continuation of the story that starts in Leadership and Self-Deception.
- The The Outward Mindset. This takes the ideas and presents them in a form to help you implement the ideas from the fictional story.
