Nearly 25 % century previously Carter Cast appeared to have it altogether: he previously a first-class education, an all-American athletic career, and was an extremely bright and dynamic rising superstar on the fast monitor at a lot of money 100 company, PepsiCo. But blissfully unacquainted with how negative perceptions were designed, he was stunned when called into his boss's office, and advised he was "unpromotable" because he was "obstinate", "resistant", and "insubordinate". Baffled, terrified, and uncomfortable, that defining point in time resulted in Cast's years-long effort to attempt to realize why he arrived so near to going off monitor, discovering that what he observed as idiosyncratic was actually common. His research shows that 98 percent of folks have at least one derailment risk factor which one half to two-thirds actually set off the rails. Generally, people get terminated, demoted, or plateau not because they lack the "right products," but because they let the "wrong products" work out. Derailment often afflicts talented people who are either unacquainted with a debilitating weakness or an social blind location, or are arrogant enough to assume that feedback doesn't connect with them. Cast's experiences and research resulted in five defining archetypes - Captain Fantastic, the One-Trick Pony, the Single Flyer, Version 1.0, and the Whirling Dervish - that share traits that minimize across gender and every level of seniority which play out almost everywhere, from big businesses to small law firms, from education corporations to raw start-ups. He shows how these archetypes are unsuccessful and succeed, and how to recognize blind spots that can lead to downfall. He provides ways to improve self-understanding - digging into subject areas like ideals, needs, and motives - and the listener with new ways to consider charge of his / her career.
