It's Killing Your Credibility.","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":1238,"description":"That \"humble\" leader everyone trusts? They might be running on fear, not virtue — and it's costing them more than they know.\nIn this episode of The Humility Advantage, based on the book The Humility Advantage by J. Alexander, we expose the mask that gets cultural applause instead of scrutiny: false modesty. It looks like humility on the surface, but underneath, it's self-doubt in disguise — and it quietly erodes credibility, confuses teams, and drives leaders straight into burnout.\nYou'll hear the study proving people trust you less when you fake-deflect praise instead of owning your wins. You'll learn what neuroscience says happens in your brain the moment you shrink yourself to avoid exposure — and why it's treated as a literal threat. And you'll hear how Satya Nadella turned Microsoft's culture around by modeling the opposite of self-erasure.Then, we walk through a 5-step, evidence-based playbook for closing the gap between the leader you perform and the leader you actually are.\nThis isn't about being modest. It's about being real. Tune in, and start leading like it.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/vgecvXFaxXCAhLfvoaTEATwE6hbAF82CkTN72LqHjxw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZWMx/N2NkMmRlOWJhMWU5/NzZlZTdhN2QzNDQw/ZmVmNy5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
