Running With Scissors:

Why Smart People Do Dumb Things (and How to Avoid Them)

Mental intelligence is not a vaccine against doing dumb things. Look at any newspaper and you will find example after example of really smart people who shoot themselves in the foot: Martha Stewart, Kenneth Lay, Dennis Kozlowski, etc. This educational yet very entertaining seminar explores the concept of "unforced errors" or self-sabotaging mistakes people make that are not only avoidable ... but dumb! Attendees will discover specific ways to recognize and eliminate unforced errors in their professional and personal lives.
