The Reflective Leader
Springer Berlin (Verlag)
978-3-662-70859-0 (ISBN)
Effective leadership requires a clear idea of leadership, which must be primarily guided by the specific conditions of their leadership context. Only the leader themselves is responsible for developing the right idea of leadership. Leaders who actively reflect on their context and their role are more likely to achieve success. By combining thoughtful self-awareness with intentional decision-making, they can move beyond relying solely on intuition and gut feelings. This approach fosters stronger, trust-based relationships between leaders and employees. This book not only provides theoretical foundations but also offers practical tools that have been proven effective in practice over many years. With the help of this book, managers will learn to understand their leadership context and, based on that understanding, develop their idea of leadership. Additionally, it shows how they can communicate and act upon their leadership idea. Therefore, this book consciously avoids presenting a normative, ideal, and universally applicable approach. This is where it differs from many other works that promote a single leadership ideal. This book is aimed at leaders, emerging leaders, leadership trainers, leadership coaches, CEOs, and HR managers focused on leadership development and talent management.
