Before you head into a job interview and start pitching yourself to a hiring manager, you'll need to get a better handle on who exactly you are, in terms of your strengths and weaknesses.
Eurich is an organizational psychologist who helps people overcome obstacles to professional success — and the biggest one, she argues, is being oblivious to your flaws and mistakes. The problem? Self-awareness is key to success at work.
"Insight" guides readers through the process of knowing themselves just a little bit better. Each chapter juxtaposes an anecdote about a struggling client Eurich has coached with relevant scientific research, and ends with some practical exercises readers can use in their everyday lives.
