The legend of Steve Jobs is that he transformed our lives with the strength of his convictions.
The reality is that much of Apple’s success came from his team’s pushing him to rethink his positions.
If Jobs hadn’t surrounded himself with people who knew how to change his mind, he might not have changed the world.

CONTEXT

The legend of Steve Jobs is that he transformed our lives with the strength of his convictions.
The key to his greatness, the story goes, was his ability to bend the world to his vision.
The reality is that much of Apple’s success came from his team’s pushing him to rethink his positions.
If Jobs hadn’t surrounded himself with people who knew how to change his mind, he might not have changed the world.
For years Jobs insisted he would never make a phone.
Almost every leader has studied the genius of Jobs, but surprisingly few have studied the genius of those who managed to influence him.
The bad news is that plenty of leaders are so sure of themselves that they reject worthy opinions and ideas from others and refuse to abandon their own bad ones.
The good news is that it is possible to get even the most overconfident, stubborn, narcissistic, and disagreeable people to open their minds.
Here are some approaches that can help you encourage a know-it-all to recognize when there’s something to be learned, a stubborn colleague to make a U-turn, a narcissist to show humility, and a disagreeable boss to agree with you.
In a turbulent world, success depends not just on cognitive horsepower but also on cognitive flexibility. When leaders lack the wisdom to question their convictions, followers need the courage to persuade them to change their minds.
