What it’s all about
In the world of management, underperformers and individuals who merely create an illusion of competence, often referred to as “blenders”, are not uncommon. These individuals can present a polished, convincing facade, while their actual performance lags significantly behind expectations. As a psychologist and consultant specializing in leadership development, it is my responsibility to equip leaders with the tools and strategies necessary to confront these challenges effectively and to enhance the overall performance of their teams. Understanding and addressing the issue of underperformance, particularly in those who skilfully disguise their inadequacies, requires a deep psychological insight and a structured approach. This text delves into the complexities of dealing with such individuals, exploring a range of psychological strategies and interventions that can transform even the most challenging employees into valuable contributors.
