Ego if used in the right way can be a powerful force for the better. America&amp;#x27;s moonshot was a collective ego of an entire nation that led them to achieve it.&lt;p&gt;I watched an interview by Charlie Rose of Google&amp;#x27;s operation guy called Lazlo, I thought it was a great interview. He said having intellectual humility is important (does not mean less ego), which is the curiosity to learn or accept if you were wrong. Ego I am not convinced is such a harmful thing, and lets not say it is harmful just because many software engineers being introverts have a confirmation bias against it.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Google CEO Sundar Pichai Brings in Less Egotistical Leadership</title><url>http://recode.net/2015/10/23/the-new-google-all-the-assholes-have-left/</url></story>

I mean, zero.”&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;How is asking pointed questions and making cutting observations equate to being unsympathetic ? If you care about succeeding, this type of feedback is invaluable. If you don&amp;#x27;t, then you are more likely going to use the &amp;#x27;he is  not very nice&amp;#x27; card to get out doing any good work.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Google CEO Sundar Pichai Brings in Less Egotistical Leadership</title><url>http://recode.net/2015/10/23/the-new-google-all-the-assholes-have-left/</url></story>
