This is an important book.” – Dave Checketts President and CEO, Madison Square Garden Corp

“I’ve said before that leaders need to be good at psychology, and that they have to start with themselves. They can’t be manipulators, even slick manipulators. They have to be genuine and feel a genuine sense of obligation toward others. I didn’t know at the time that there existed such powerful, insightful, and unique material to help leaders accomplish this. Genuine breakthroughs are rare, but this book is one of them.” – Mort Meyerson Former President and CEO, EDS and Perot Systems

It equips leaders to bring out the greatness in the people with whom they work and live. This book, Leadership and Self-Deception, is a terrific introduction to Arbinger’s groundbreaking material-I enjoyed it immensely.” – Robert C. Gay Managing Director, Bain Capital

“This is not just another book on leadership. It is about being a real leader. It identifies the central issue-indeed, the central issue of all organizational performance.

I recommend it very highly.” – Brad Pelo President and CEO, NEXTPAGE

Having finished this book and absorbed the wise words that fill every page, I wonder why we teach mathematics to enforce logical thinking, languages for intercultural communication, and so on, but we lack the essence: a proper method for social behaviour!

The book helps people to know their neighbor without fear. And that is about as good as it gets. — Stephen Pryor, Former English Prison Service Governor; Vice Chair, Grubb Institute For Behavioral Studies (London)
