Leader as Healer
A New Paradigm for 21st Century Leadership
Leaders of today must possess potent powers for logic, reason, discernment and strategic forecasting. Yet, they must also be empathic, skilled in mindfulness and deep listening, and able to restore coherence where there is fragmentation and unity where there is division.
Leader as Healer outlines a theoretical and practical map towards this new form of leadership – one that embodies the ‘skill, heart, and wisdom’ that the current moment demands. It offers a way to grow ourselves as leaders and heal our organisations.
