When we think about new technology we seldom consider technologies that help us understand human interaction in a more precise way. Recent discoveries have helped us uncover the “disease” of self-deception (acting in ways contrary to what one knows is right), which tends to underlie all leadership problems in our projects and programs. However well intentioned they may be, leaders who deceive themselves always end up undermining their own performance. In this interactive tutorial the key points of the text “Leadership and Self-Deception” will be highlighted to help us examine how we sometimes create our own problems, how we present falsehoods about who we think we are, and how these falsehoods limit us in our leadership and relationships with others in our projects and teams. We will discover new and insightful perspectives on how change occurs by examining the very root of change.
