Edge Over Ego: Why Being Right Isn't Enough and What Actually Makes Leaders Effective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798243709491)

Most leadership failures don't start with incompetence. They start with confidence, the kind that quietly turns into certainty.

Edge Over Ego is not a book about becoming humbler or softer. It's about recognizing how ego disguises itself as competence, experience, and authority, and how that disguise slowly erodes trust, learning, and effectiveness.

Through real stories, uncomfortable truths, and clear-eyed reflection, this book explores why capable, high-performing leaders stop listening, over-control outcomes, and confuse being right with being effective.

This book is for people who win arguments and lose rooms.
Who lead smart teams that feel quieter than they should.
Who feel constant pressure to always have the answer.
Who want to stay sharp without becoming rigid.

If you've ever wondered why success feels heavier than it should, or why leadership feels lonelier the higher you climb, this book offers a different way forward.

Not by eliminating ego.
But by choosing edge instead.
