    The document provides tips for leaders on being authentic without oversharing personal information. It discusses that leaders can fail if they are oblivious to themselves, unable to read others as "bumblers", or disclose too much as "open books". It recommends that leaders 1) develop self-knowledge through feedback, 2) consider what is relevant to share for the task, 3) keep revelations genuine, 4) understand cultural and organizational norms before disclosing, and 5) delay or avoid very personal disclosures. Following these five steps can help leaders refrain from oversharing and maintain credibility.
