What
is Neuro Leadership?
It
is in people's interest to figure out how the great leaders of the
world achieve managing and controlling others in a productive way.
Many psychologists have been analyzing the factors and key components
of our personality, that separate a leader from a follower or a
manager from an employee. The questions have always been: What gives
some people the ability to lead and why are leadership capabilities
not within everyone's capacity?
Certain
personality characteristics, like conscienciousness (dealing well
with a high degree of responsibility), have been determined as key
factors of a leader's personality. But one can assume with certainty,
that personality originates from the physical components of our body:
Our brain. The mind that makes the thoughts of a leader work, is the
physical structure in our skull.
In
simply put terms, thought comes from neurons (nervecells) in our
brains, that fire impulses from one to the other. They do this in a
particular way and hold up a certain line of communication that
contain the affirmitive orders for thoughts and actions. Depending on
what we think about, these communication lines travel different roads
in our brain. The assumption is now, that leaders' brains show very
different and very specific travel paths. Those should become
visible with neuroimaging techniques.
Therefore,
neuroleadership is a field of neuropsychology, that is applied to
find out the biological components that separate a leader from a
follower.
Maybe
this information will be used in the future to determine who is
suitable for which job. Interviewing a future employee or testing her
for the position may become completely obsolete. You may be recruited
into a managing position, if your neurological imaging shows that
your brain is built for leadership. One image alone can then
determine your future.
