Micah Zenko Quotes
Astonishing Number Of Senior Leaders Are Systemically Incapable Of Identifying Their Organization's Most Glaring And Dangerous Shortcomings. This Is Not A Function Of Stupidity, But Rather Stems From Two Routine Pressures That Constrain Everybody's Thinking And Behavior. The First Is Comprised Of Cognitive Biases, Such As Mirror Imaging, Anchoring, And Confirmation Bias. These Unconscious Motivations On Decision-making Under Uncertain Conditions Make It Inherently Difficult To Evaluate One's Own Judgments And Actions. As David Dunning, A Professor Of Psychology At Cornell University, Has Shown In Countless Environments, People Who Are Highly Incompetent In Terms Of Their Skills Or Knowledge Are Also Terrible Judges Of Their Own Performance. For Example, People Who Perform The Worst On Pop Quizzes Also Have The Widest Variance Between How They Thought They Performed And The Actual Score That They Earned.22
