So when the pressure is on, we turn to these same people for the heroic effort that makes the difference between winning and losing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBut what happens when short-term heroics become a long-term habit? The same names get called on to save the day, their efforts are celebrated, and other approaches, and other people, fade into the background. Knowledge gets trapped. Collaboration stalls. The heroes at the centre burn out. Everyone else checks out. Unseen potential languishes on the sidelines. The benefits of new innovations like AI accrue fastest to those already most visible, further widening the gap.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is hero culture, and no one is winning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBreak the Hero Trap\u003c\/em\u003e blends organisational research with stories from over thirty leaders to reveal how hero culture takes hold, what it costs, and how to change it so that capability grows in every corner of every team.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDrawing on over three decades of experience in building technology teams, Niamh Bohan shows that the problem is not the heroes but the systems around them. Every organisation needs people who step up. The damage comes from promoting, rewarding and organising around the same few people until top performance turns in on itself. This book offers a fresh lens on performance, one that helps you recognise capability in all its guises and widen who gets the chance to use it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf you are the one always called on, or you have watched a team shrink around its strongest voices, this book will give you the insights, language and practical strategies to find the capability hidden across your teams and put it to work, so that your people grow, and your organisation grows with them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Niamh Bohan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49194618749179,"sku":"9783112229590","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/break-the-hero-trap-9783112229590","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
