People say that the ego is a bad thing, but it’s actually a key to success if it’s not too big or too small. The business owner should learn how to cope with it and use it in a way that helps their business. This is how we explain it. Some people may not like it, but everyone has an ego. It is there in all of us, whether it is huge or small, strong or weak. Ego is not a flaw in someone’s character; it’s how they see and understand themselves. It is a way of forming our own identity that lets us tell ourselves apart from other people. In this case, ego is one part of personality. It is shaped by our experiences and how we interpret them. The ego reflects who we think we are and our sense of worth. We are not our ego; we have one. The Role of Ego in Startup Failure shows how this can lead to poor decisions and business failure.
You may also say that his ego can be good or terrible. We call this asset “self-esteem.” A person has good self-esteem if they think positively about their ego. But on the other end of the range, if someone judges you badly, your self-esteem is low. It is completely objective and depends on a number of internal and external elements, such as how the individual sees their prior events, how others see them, and how sensitive they are. So, two people who have lived the same life and have the same traits can feel very differently about themselves. How people see or understand past events as good or harmful will also matter.
There is a golden rule for your ego: you can’t have too much or too little of it
In particular, in the company’s situation, where it is at the centre of everything because it always affects how professionals engage with each other. Not being able to control your ego can be bad for you personally, as it can make you less motivated and involved, more stressed, and worse for team spirit. An entrepreneur’s big ego might make them overly self-centred, cause problems with communication, or even make them act aggressively to show how important they are. When someone with a big ego makes decisions, they are likely to be based on their own reasoning. However, actions made by someone with an inflated ego are hard to combine and may even limit the business’s overall impact.
On the other hand, having a weak ego can also lead to low self-confidence, which can be seen as a sign of being grounded or not being able to accomplish the job. The position that isn’t very flattering for an entrepreneur and makes them question whether they would make a good leader. The person in charge of the firm should have a big ego, but not too much of it. In reality, having a lot of self-esteem is a sure way to get things done and stay motivated. A company leader who is sure in their skills and strengths will be more willing to take risks, grow, and try new things.
He will fight harder when he knows he is right and is still good at what he does
Also, a leader will be more fair and kind if they know what their strengths and shortcomings are and have a healthy self-image that doesn’t require them to put others down. To use your ego for good health and happiness, you have to let rid of it. To do this, you need to know that ego is not the same as being. We may then see if this ego is more likely to hurt us or help us. We should do everything we can to keep it out of the company’s strategic decision-making when it is more likely to hurt us. To this end, you should think about setting goals that are not secret and that go against your ego.
There are so-called indications that show an entrepreneur’s motives, such as annual income and profitability, new clients, and so on. Some of these characteristics are more likely to make the person in charge feel good about themselves. So, a business leader who is motivated by a high salary, which is a very personal goal in and of itself, will be more likely to pay greater attention to the revenue indication. As we talked about before, a decision based entirely on personal criteria will not only make an entrepreneur feel good, but it could also be bad for the business.
What about ego at work interests you
Then, the entrepreneur will be happy to make what are called “anti-egopitial” judgements that are also good for the health of his business. An example of an anti-ego indication would be making his clients’ daily lives better and making them happy. If you are interested in this signal, your clients will feel sympathy and loyalty. That will always be better for the teams and provide them greater motivation than the boss’s drive for personal gain. As Jean-Paul Lugan says, the corporation is a “ego recruiter” that makes a “narcissistic pact” with the upper management.
Still, the ego can’t help a company’s performance because it makes people stressed and makes them make bad decisions… He is a coach, trainer, and management expert who helps CEOs feel good about themselves. Jean-Paul Lugan: I started with an observation. The company is an agora where the boss and the employees exist with the intimidation in his belly about the poor decisions he or she can make and its effects. The dread of being criticised, undervalued, or even ignored. People are afraid to say some things to their boss or other coworkers.
Conclusion
These anxieties affect how they act at work, making them cowardly, manipulative, and so on. But what is behind all of these fears? the self. Everyone lives and survives on it, yet no one ever talks about it. But the list of bad things that happen when the firm doesn’t manage itself well is long: less profit, feelings of unfairness, less interaction, stress, dependency, a bad social atmosphere, people not showing up, damage to the company’s reputation, and so on.
You may also say that his ego can be good or terrible. We call this asset “self-esteem.” A person has good self-esteem if they think positively about their ego. But on the other end of the range, if someone judges you badly, your self-esteem is low.
