Transforming Communication in Leadership and Teamwork

Más información sobre el libro

This highly interactive book presents a transformative approach to communication in leadership, addressing workplace challenges at local and global levels. Grounded in neuroscience, psychology, and leadership science, it emphasizes the importance of balancing two key management focal points: tasks and the concerns of others and self. This balance enhances decision-making, collaboration with diverse colleagues, and crisis management. Readers will find case examples, self-tests, reflective prompts, and practical exercises that encourage them to assess and apply these concepts to their own styles. The chapters illustrate the benefits of collaborative communication, including increased effectiveness, deeper empathy, and lasting positive change. Key topics include: the two-agenda approach for humane management; becoming a person-centered leader in crises; methods for enhancing communication through dialogue; problem-solving in teams; integrating agendas in agile management; insights from neuroscience on managing tasks and people; and transforming communication in multicultural contexts. This resource is particularly valuable for diverse business professionals, including managers, leaders, team members, consultants, coaches, and members of multinational teams, as well as instructors and students in related fields.
