Leadership Meta-Competencies (eBook, ePUB)

Discovering Hidden Virtues

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The meta-competencies discussed in this refreshing book are timeless virtues of which effective leaders seem to possess: Existential intelligence - the ability to pose questions and reflect on fundamental issues in ways that develop a mature ability to interpret the world and better understand other people; Phronesis - the ability to exercise sound judgement based on skilful application of moral and political rationality; Solitude - a voluntary state achieved when an individual has the ability to momentarily withdraw and be free of external pressures and demands in order to concentrate on desired mental-cognitive activities; Trust building - the ability to be credible, show trust in and respect for other people and inspire trust. For anyone wishing to consider hidden or forgotten aspects of leadership competence this book introduces the notion of meta-competences and deals in detail with them.
