Are you “all that and a bag of chips”?
We all need an ego. As Peter says, ego serves a function.
But too much ego might translate into steamrolling over others. And too little ego can mean withdrawing and allowing others to steamroll over you.
There’s a good balance between being secure in your own voice without stomping out the voice of others. Good ego management is really intentional humility.
In this episode, Peter and Daniel take a deep dive into ego management–why it’s important, how to bounce back from hits to our egos, and why too little ego can be just as much a problem as too much.
Tune in to learn:
- The “antidote” to ego
- The one thing to keep in mind for ego management
- The value of “safe places” in managing ego
Plus, how feedback has changed–and how it hasn’t–through the decades, and the balance between glory and work.
