Mind Knots - Lisa Tromba - Bog

"Where did we go wrong?"
It's a question that haunts boardrooms across the globe when leadership falters. Ego,
unrealistic optimism, overconfidence, risk aversion, and other psychological anchors can silently
sabotage a leader's effectiveness, sinking careers and organizations-but they don't have to.
In Mind Knots, Lisa Tromba, an authority in executive search, reveals the intricate web of
cognitive and emotional biases that lurk beneath the surface, too often entangling the minds of
even the most seasoned leaders, distorting judgment, and hijacking rational leadership. These
deeply ingrained cognitive undercurrents cannot be eliminated, but they can be managed and
reframed as transformative strategic assets. Tromba shows you how.
Drawing from captivating real-life case studies, Mind Knots casts a lifeline with a refreshing
perspective-you don't fight these biases, you sail with them. Tromba provides a robust and
actionable framework for creating a culture of effective bias-aware leadership. Here you'll find
processes, financial considerations, mission-based initiatives, and capabilities designed to help
leaders chart a course through the biases that bind and blind them. Discover strategic
maneuvers and organizational models to harness the power of cognitive biases to work for
instead of against you and your organization.
Learn how to let the knots that once tied you down become the knots that move you forward.
