The publication draws on research and established theories
from psychology and leadership studies
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- To be
effective and successful in their roles, leaders have to apply a
degree of psychology while conducting their teams. However, this
isn't something that comes naturally to everyone.
To explore how leaders can better inspire and motivate people,
The Myers-Briggs Company is launching the ebook Psychology of
Leadership: 5 Ways to Improve Leadership Effectiveness.
Leading with Knowledge
Freely available on the company's website, it gives actionable
tips and examples while discussing the key psychological principles
that underpin effective leadership. Among them are:
- Integrity: Being an authentic leader provides an
important foundation for building trust in teams.
- Influence: Strong communication skills help leaders
remove roadblocks and gather the resources to support their
teams.
- Agility: Leaders need to be open to learning and change
and have the courage to drive the right change.
- Empathy: This is important to be an effective leader.
Empathy is ultimately a building block of inclusivity.
- 'Active' self-awareness: It is equally important for
leaders to understand their strengths and areas of development and
act upon them.
"There's often an assumption that others are motivated and
inspired by the same factors that we are," says Cameron Nott, Chief International Markets
Officer of The Myers-Briggs Company. "Leading with purpose and
understanding the unique needs of each team member creates a more
positive and productive workplace. Psychometric assessments,
including the MBTI® and FIRO®, can be very helpful for leaders
to build their 'active' self-awareness."
