Yo, CEOs, are ya still hooked on hubris?

Today's CEOs aren't just "leaders"; they're brands craving engagement.
They're everywhere, sharing "visionary" ideas that don't face scrutiny.
They've got social media, personal blogs, and the public stage.
This visibility twists self-confidence into hubris.
Here's why:
Success becomes addiction.
Ambition spirals into obsession.
Wins bring power, but each one needs to top the last.
Fake expertise is unchecked.
Many rely on ghostwriters and popular advice.
It's noise, not leadership, and no one calls them out.
Visibility feeds ego.
Constant attention inflates egos.
CEOs aren't just leading; they're performing.
Isolation breeds delusion.
Fewer voices around = more disconnect.
Reality blurs, and all challenges get ignored.
Hubris isn't a badge of honor; it's a noose tightening around your neck.
Remember this: your next big win could be the last.
My advice to you is this:
take a step back
listen, learn, and grow
surround yourself with honest voices
focus on your impact, not just the wins
seek honest feedback, embrace vulnerability
don't let pride blind you—let modesty lead the way
