ABSTRACT

When it comes to the ego traps, the journey is a personal one, unique to each of us. We will all struggle in different ways and have our own tendencies to regularly fall into some traps while managing

to avoid others easily. The individuals you’ve met in this book certainly

show us how these traps may affect us and those important to us, as well

as the risks and rewards associated with the way we decide to manage

ego temptations. Recall Henri, the dapper Frenchman who lost his cool

when given feedback from his team (“Am I really that way? Give me an

example!”) and fell into Ego Trap 1 (ignoring feedback you don’t like).
