Episode Takeaway: Why do people hire so many incompetent leaders?

Competence and confidence are not the same things. A lot of particularly male candidates come in exuding confidence. People start confusing confidence with competence. If somebody has competence, you want to test for it. You want to check references for it. But don’t assume competence based on someone’s confidence, two separate things.
Women express confidence differently than men. And it works to the disadvantage of women. So, if you’re looking to hire really great women on your team, understand that you have a male candidate and you have a woman candidate. You need to understand men and women don’t think the same. And men and women don’t express their level of confidence in the same way, and just understand that.
