In this episode I’m talking to Professor Constantine Sedikides about self enhancement - our tendency to think we’re better than other people.

We’ll explore in what ways people think they are superior to others, why this happens and how this varies between people. We will also consider the implications of self-enhancement for society.

Professor Sedikides is Professor of Social and Personality Psychology at the University of Southampton. His research focusses on the role of our self and identity in our thinking and behaviour.

I hope you enjoy our conversation. Please subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts from, and share it with everyone you know! See more of my podcasts, books and consultancy at www.richarddocwra.com and connect with me on Twitter @RichardDocwra
