There are six different 45-minute talks available.
One of her highly popular talks is based on the work of her third book about Confidence vs Competence.
More confidence is too frequently seen as a fast-fix for career progression, but the reality is that confidence can have many downsides ranging from hiring and promoting the wrong people to investor overconfidence, the type that played a large part in the global financial crisis. In this talk, Dr. Suzanne Doyle-Morris, unpicks where you need to be confident and where you’re better off being ‘competent’ – a decidedly ‘uns*xy’ but undervalued word. Plus, treating confidence as an end goal disadvantages groups where self-promotion is not rewarded.
Dr. Doyle-Morris focuses on:
1. Judging the difference between competent or simply overconfident.
2. Challenging an over-valuation of confidence as one of key attributes onto which we reward people.
3. Gaining recognition for your competence, not your supreme confidence, from senior stakeholders.
