Organizational psychologist Tasha Eurich explains that while most people believe they are self-aware, only a small minority truly are. Drawing on her research, she describes the two kinds of self-awareness, knowing ourselves and knowing how others see us, and the roadblocks that prevent it. Eurich offers practical tools for gaining insight, getting honest feedback and dealing with unaware people, showing how self-knowledge leads to better relationships, work and leadership.
