I absolutely agree that 'rockstarism' is hugely problematic (I agree with tptacek's sibling post on the topic). That said, some of this post feels worryingly like it's pushing 'truth by association' to me. I'd love to hear each of the recommendations herein discussed on their own merit and with clear reasons given for each one. That is, I wouldn't encourage anyone to conflate fighting narcissism and arrogance with quashing openness, confidence and self-respect in a demographic (engineers) which arguably already has trouble with those - irrespective of the gender of the engineer.
