Temperament: Tradition or Trend? Bringing Temperament up to date for 21st Century Leaders
Thirty years ago, few people talked of emotional intelligence, neuroscience, positive psychology, or mental well-being. Now there is widespread interest in popular psychology, and people are much more aware of their psychological needs.
Thirty years ago, leaders in organisations could operate in a command and control way. Now millennials want their leaders to be empathic. The role of the leader-manager is now less an overseer of task completion and more an enabler of self-motivation.
In this context, temperament – which explains why we do what we do – is the perfect tool to enable leaders to lead their team to fulfil their purpose and potential. Catherine’s approach to temperament links our core psychological needs to the essential leadership capabilities of engaging, developing, delegating and connecting. In this session she will share a practical toolkit to enable leaders to motivate their teams, improve their well-being and feel motivated themselves.
