CONFIDENCE
Overcoming Low Self-Esteem, Insecurity, and Self-Doubt
In this eye-opening book, Dr. Chamorro-Premusic--an award-winning expert in personality profiling and one of the most prolific social scientists of his generation--offers readers a counter-intuitive antidote to insecurity and low confidence: embrace it!
Dr. Chamorro-Premuzic's original, research-based work will have readers with low esteem far and wide clamoring to know how to turn a perceived weakness into an asset. This book has obvious applications for everyone: from business audiences, to people who want to improve their social lives. Here's copy:
Millions of people are plagued by low self-confidence. But in CONFIDENCE, personality expert Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic shows us that high confidence makes us less likeable, less employable, and less successful in the long run. It reveals the benefits of low confidence (including being more motivated and self-aware), teaches us how to know when to fake it, get ahead at work, improve our social skills, feel better emotionally and physically, and much more.
With this engaging, practical study of our minds and emotions, we can become more capable in every facet of life. Based on decades of research, including the author’s own groundbreaking work, and filled with fascinating anecdotal evidence, this will appeal to readers of The Willpower Instinct by Kelly McGonigal and Succeed by Heidi Grant Halvorson. CONFIDENCE will shatter every myth you’ve ever believed about self-confidence and its effects on us—ranging from the very personal to the global level.
Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Ph.D., is one of the youngest tenured professors at University College London (UCL) and visiting professor at New York University. He is the author of six books (most recently, Personality 101) and also writes regular blogs for Harvard Business Review and Psychology Today. He lives in London and New York, and frequently appears in the media.
