Description

Leadership is not a static occurrence. It is a dynamic one that constantly evolves. Leadership is seen as a means to enhance ones personal, professional, and social lives. Organizations believe that leaders bring in unique assets to the organization; which contribute to the bottom line of the company. The conclusions drawn from research findings on leadership portray an image of a process that is far more sophisticated and complex than the condensed view, popularly accepted. This chapter will provide a comprehensive evaluation of different approaches to leadership and highlight the importance of a new paradigm. Ground breaking insights have started to surface regarding neurosciences and brain functioning that has significantly influenced leadership thought. The traditional approaches of leadership could not adapt to the world of unlimited information which needed continuous evolution; however, our brain can adapt and change leading to the emergence of neuro-leadership. The chapter will trace the journey of neuroleadership and its increasing relevance in the current scenario, especially in terms of employee and organization performance. 2024 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
