    Confidence in one's own worth; self-respect.

    American companies now put a great deal of effort into boosting their employees' self-esteem by handing out inflated job titles. Most likely, they think it also helps compensate for the longer hours, unpaid overtime and stagnant wages that have become standard. It doesn't.

    People with high self-esteem think they're more popular, charming, and socially skilled than other people, but objective studies find no difference.
