I know this will surprise you, but statistically,

they are more likely to be male than female.

Men are typically more deceived about their talents than women are.

to fool other people into thinking that you're better than you actually are

This is why you may not just have worked with people

who are not as good as they think, but also for them.

Unfortunately, being unaware of your limitations

increases your probability of being a boss.

I use science and technology to predict and understand human behavior at work.

is the relationship between gender, personality and leadership;

more specifically, how gender and personality

and how those leaders then impact organizations.

on the under-representation of women in leadership,

Anywhere in the world - well, outside Iceland perhaps -

But a bigger problem is the fact that most of these leaders are incompetent.

most leaders have very negative effects on their followers and subordinates,

causing low levels of engagement, trust and productivity,

to see what most people think of their managers -

and maybe, just maybe, feel a bit better about your manager:

"Crazy," "abusive," "unbearable," "toxic,"

For example, imagine a movie on Angela Merkel.

lets other people talk without interrupting them,

In contrast, there is a surplus of captivating biopics

on charismatic leaders with a fascinating dark side,

who end up ruining their countries and organizations.

The third and final reason for the rise of incompetent men

is our inability to resist the allure of narcissistic individuals,

people with grandiose and megalomaniac visions

but our admiration for people who admire themselves

or are famous for, well, just being famous,

At this rate, future generations will look back at Kim and Kanye and say,
