The Confidence Paradox
Update: 2025-10-29
Description
In this episode of The Deliberate Leaders Podcast, Allison Dunn explores one of leadership’s most overlooked contradictions: when confidence becomes a blind spot. Through the story of Marcus—a successful founder whose confidence turned into costly overconfidence—Allison reveals how unchecked certainty can limit growth, silence feedback, and stall innovation. She introduces the idea of calibrated confidence, the balance between self-belief and humility, and shares reflective questions to help leaders recognize when their confidence might be crossing the line.
