Perfectionism (Best-selling author Thomas Curran, PhD)
Manage episode 405771112 series 2430526
Perfectionism. While it may be the obvious answer to the interview question about our “greatest weaknesses,” the potential negative influence it can have on our lives is palatable – and none of us are immune. Today we have the privilege of having Dr. Thomas Curran, best-selling author of the hugely popular book The Perfection Trap: Embracing the Power of Good Enough. He is also a professor of psychology at the London School of Economics and author of a landmark study the BBC hailed as “the first to compare perfectionism across generations.” Oh – and by the way, his TED talk on the subject has received more than 3 million views.
Thank you for joining us here on the Catalyst 360 podcast - this interview is one we’ve been working on a very long time. I met Dr. Curran over a beer when we were both attending a sports psychology conference in Germany about 5 years ago. I remember being impressed by him at the time and then suddenly started seeing his name everywhere when his book shot to the top of the charts. You’ll see why as we discuss why perfectionists are actually limiting their performance, strategies for harnessing the potential positives without falling prey to the pitfalls, the role sledgehammers can play in the perfectionist’s journey and what parents, educators and leaders can do to turn the tide of perfectionism in a positive direction.
