[Tasha Eurich, an organizational psychologist] who spent nearly five years as part of a research team on the subject, says people who lack self-awareness can greatly reduce a team’s effectiveness. While defining self-awareness is to some extent subjective, Eurich identifies several characteristics and tendencies of people who lack this important trait:
“They won’t listen to, or accept, critical feedback.
They cannot empathize with, or take the perspective of, others.
They have difficulty ‘reading a room’ and tailoring their message to their audience.
They possess an inflated opinion of their contributions and performance.
They are hurtful to others without realizing it.
They take credit for successes and blame others for failures.”
