Narcissistic Leaders and Times of Crisis
Are you working in an organization where leaders model well-developed competencies of emotional intelligence and social intelligence? Do the leaders in your organization inspire others to create an inspired future?
One of the most powerful questions one can ask oneself is “Do our organizational leaders have a strong vision for the future?” Inspiring leaders excite followers with high levels of energy and hope for a better future.
Are you a leader who has an inspiring leadership style? Are you able to create a high performance workplace by creating a workplace where employees are fully engaged and leaders inspire people to accomplish all of their goals?
The business world is experiencing enormous changes that call for visionary and charismatic leadership. Throughout history, narcissists have always emerged to inspire people and shape the future.
At the beginning of the 20th century, men like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford exploited new technologies and restructured American industry.
Today, rapid changes in technology, the economy and the way business is conducted again call for robust leadership. To paraphrase Dickens, it is the best of times and the worst of times. While narcissistic leaders can be visionaries who engage their followers, there’s a dark side worthy of examination.
Working with a seasoned executive coach trained in emotional intelligence and incorporating leadership assessments such as the Bar-On EQ-i and CPI 260 can help you become an inspiring leader who displays the qualities of visionary leadership. You can become a leader who models emotional intelligence, and who inspires people to become happily engaged with the strategy and vision of the company.
