Convinced
- Use the “impression management” tools of the “8 pillars of competence.”
- Competence & brilliance aren’t self-evident.
- Manage people’s anticipation, so they will expect you to be competent.
- Associate yourself with good news.
- Showcase the “competence formula”: Performance, Ability, Motivation, Dealing with difficulty and luck.
- Master verbal and nonverbal communication.
- The greater your attraction the greater is your perceived competence.
- Use “power of symbols” to build your competence: your habitus – the way you look and act.
- Judging people’s competence is hard; recognizing their incompetence is easier.
