"In my view, the main reason for the uneven management sex ratio is our inability to discern between confidence and competence. That is, because we (people in general) commonly misinterpret displays of confidence as a sign of competence, we are fooled into believing that men are better leaders than women."

The people I have learned the most from, and who are the most competent (some of them in CEO positions, most in leadership), take the exact opposite approach. Always willing to admit fault, and imperfections, and always "looking for a better way to do X".
