The 11 Behaviours That Can Derail Your Climb to the Top

In Authors David Dotlich & Peter Cairo book “ Why CEO’s Fail: The 11 Behaviours That Can Derail Your Climb to the Top—and How to Manage Them.”, they  identified the 11 derailers most common among executives:

They are:
1. Arrogance—they think that they are right, and everyone else is wrong.
2. Melodrama—they need to be the center of attention.
3. Volatility—they are subject to mood swings.
4. Excessive Caution—they are afraid to make decisions.
5. Habitual Distrust—they focus on the negatives.
6. Aloofness—they are disengaged and disconnected.
7. Mischievousness—they believe the rules are made to be broken.
8. Eccentricity—they try to be different just for the sake of it.
9. Passive Resistance—what they say is not what they really believe.
10. Perfectionism—they get the little things right and the big things wrong.
11. Eagerness to Please—they try to win the popularity of others.
