The Confidence Code the Science and Art of Self-Assurance - What Women Should Know
The Confidence Code The Science And Art Of Self-Assurance - What Women Should Know by Katty Kay and Claire Shipman www.thebusinesssource.com All Rights Reserved Katty Kay and Claire Shipman’s experiences and interactions with some of the world’s most powerful women sparked their exploration into the concept of confidence. Both women are based in Washington, D.C., and specialize in politics and international affairs; Kay as anchor at BBC World News America, and Shipman as a correspondent for ABC News and Good Morning America. They started the book project by considering a long list of questions about confidence, such as: Are men truly more confident than women? How do you define confidence? Do you have to be born with it, or can you develop it? And do we need it to be successful? In their research, they interviewed scientists, neurologists, psychologists, performance and sports coaches, as well as women with all levels of confidence, from high to low. They talked to men in all walks of life, too. “Much of what we found is relevant for both sexes,” they say. ”But there is a particular crisis for women.” The authors believe that the root of this crisis is a lack of self-belief. This can be costly for women, because Shipman and Kay also found that confidence equates with success. “… there is evidence that confidence is more important than ability when it comes to getting ahead,” they say. But there are plenty of ways to become more confident. “The newest research shows that we can literally change our brains in ways that affect our thoughts and behavior at any age,” state the authors.

Flip-Flops, Double Standards, and Other Political Sins: a Citizen’S Guide to Hypocrisy in Politics
ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: FLIP-FLOPS, DOUBLE STANDARDS, AND OTHER POLITICAL SINS: A CITIZEN’S GUIDE TO HYPOCRISY IN POLITICS Jason Port Stonerook, Doctor of Philosophy, 2020 Dissertation directed by: Professor Karol Soltan Department of Government and Politics People detest hypocrisy, and one of the reasons people hold politics in such low regard is that politics appears rife with hypocrisy. The proliferation of hypocrisy in politics can leave many feeling disenchanted and cynical about political affairs. Yet even those with a strong aversion to political hypocrisy are likely to admit there are occasions when an act that has been characterized as hypocritical is actually acceptable in politics. In some cases, the offense of hypocrisy may not be very serious, or conditioned by circumstances; in other cases, the accusation may not even be valid. This study examines the question of when hypocrisy is more or less acceptable in politics. This issue is explored through a series of case studies drawn from events that occurred in American politics between 2014-2016, an era characterized by high political polarization, high-stakes showdowns between congressional Republicans and the Democratic administration of President Barack Obama, the 2016 presidential primaries, and 2016 presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. The study is organized by type, with a focus on basic violations of principle; logical inconsistencies; double standards involving partisan competition; discrepancies between the public affairs of public officials and their private lives; and flip-flops. The study finds that the most useful and powerful accusations of hypocrisy are those that effectively assert that a political figure has inappropriately prioritized narrow partisan concerns over a broader commitment to principles related to democratic norms, the exercise of civic virtue, and public-spiritedness.
