getAbstract Summary: Get the key points from this book in less than 10 minutes.

To inspire their followers, leaders demonstrate confidence in their abilities and decisions while keeping an open mind, remaining willing to change their thinking and guarding against mental "blindspots" that lead them astray. This is challenging, because most people don't know they even have blindspots. In this knowledgeable, useful manual, management consultant Robert Bruce Shaw explains leadership blindspots and their causes. He tells you how to find and manage your blindspots. The book's appendix includes a useful "Leadership Blindspot Survey," also available online. With thanks for that, plus Shaw's helpful diagrams, charts, lists and feedback worksheet, getAbstract recommends his insightful diagnoses and practical prescriptions to leaders at every level.
