Abstract
This chapter retells the story of Captain Chesley Sullenberger who successfully crash-landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson, demonstrating how confidence, skill, and composure can lead to amazing results. This is contrasted to the follies of Nick Leeson who single-handedly broke Barings Bank (the oldest merchant bank) through a combination of greed and fear, demonstrating what happens when confidence outpaces true capability. The chapter is rounded out by a recent study about final salary arbitrations in Major League Baseball, highlighting how confidence, individual capability, and ego-threat interact to predict who chokes under pressure both in and out of the workplace. Those who have the most to lose tend to fall the hardest.
这一章重述了机长切斯利·萨伦伯格的故事，他成功地使全美航空公司1549航班迫降在哈德逊河上，向我们展示了自信、技巧和镇定如何能带来惊人的结果。这与尼克•李森(Nick Leeson)的愚蠢形成鲜明对比，他凭借贪婪和恐惧的结合，以一己之力使巴林银行(Barings Bank)(最古老的商业银行)破产，证明了当信心超过了真正的能力时，会发生什么。最近一项关于美国职业棒球大联盟(Major League Baseball)最终薪资仲裁的研究使本章更加完善，该研究强调了自信、个人能力和自我威胁如何相互作用，以预测谁会在工作场所内外的压力下窒息。失去最多的人往往摔得最惨。
