Who would be an expert in a world where expertise is under siege?
Hard-won know-how and experience seem to count for nothing in the
eyes of everyone from high-profile business leaders to populist
politicians. But what evidence do we have that this perception is
right? Amanda Goodall has been asking this question for the last
twenty years. Her research has taken her from boardrooms and F1
race tracks to hospitals and higher education. She has proven time
and again that, when it comes to top performance, we need people -
especially bosses - with the expertise that only comes from a deep
understanding of the worlds in which they operate. That's what
makes the people around them feel happier, better appreciated and
more productive. In Credible, Goodall debunks the cult of
managerialism (the notion that smart people can run anything) and
provides an underappreciated model for career success: go deep into
a business, work hard, and know your stuff. We all want to be led
by people we can relate to and trust, people who have the
credibility to make us want to follow them. When it comes to
credible leadership, expertise really matters.
