Seth Godin

Author, The Song of Significance


I so wanted to write that Flawed is perfect! It covers very important material in a highly engaging style, drawing from extensive clinical research. But I avoid the obvious and ironic error to say instead that Flawed offers a comprehensive look at the dangers of perfectionism in teams and organizations - and offers a way out. Author Greg Chasson adds a crucial new perspective to existing resources on perfectionism in individuals by bringing his considerable clinical expertise to the workplace.

Amy C Edmondson

Author, Right Kind of Wrong


Flawed is one of those precious books that comes along just at the right moment. It's well-researched, chock-full of illuminating case studies, and offers a treasure trove of clinically-informed strategies to manage both our own perfectionism and the perfectionism of other people. Like spending time with a close friend, by the end of it I was sad to put it down. It's the only book on perfectionism that business leaders will ever need.

Thomas Curran

Author, The Perfection Trap

In Flawed, Greg Chasson tackles toxic achievement culture head-on.

Author, Never Enough

Perfectionism is a secret saboteur of organizational efficiency, but Greg's engrossing and timeless book delivers an innovative framework and practical solutions for addressing perfectionism in your teams. Flawed needs to be required reading for every manager and any business leader with a stake in a thriving workplace culture.

Nick Sonnenberg

Author, Come Up for Air


Time for companies to stop hailing perfection as the only destination and recognize flexible thinking as a viable direction. Fixating on unreasonable expectations is a surefire way to act inauthentically and unnaturally, while also undermining your personal and professional potential. Chasson's entertaining and informative book masterfully changes the way we think about perfection. This book will help leaders and perfectionists alike.

Co-Author, The Unsold Mindset


Perfectionists on your team can become crippled by their own strategies, albeit with the best of intentions. Their behavior seems self-defeating and paradoxical. And they can bog down your entire team. Greg Chasson gives expert guidance about how managers can root out the cause of inefficiency and obstacles to success by helping you spot perfectionistic employees. And more importantly, he provides you with a multitude of strategies that you can use to help these employees truly tap into their potential.

Jeff Szymanski, Author, The Perfectionist's Handbook

Overcoming analysis-paralysis by embracing uncertainty and imperfection is essential for operators to realize their full potential. Dr. Chasson has tremendously utilized his expertise as an OCD specialist and his adept teaching ability to assist leaders in mastering this important skill.

Stephen Smith, Founder/CEO, NOCD
