Psychology of Leadership

Leadership psychology is an emerging cross-disciplinary field. It integrates the study and practice of leadership and organisational systems with the fundamentals of human psychology to create a 21st century approach to leadership. In this collection we look at the major theories related to the psychology of leadership and the values each one brings.
  • Consider what makes certain leaders great and their attributes
  • Discuss whether leaders are born or made
  • Understand different models of leadership
  • Training options for groups/teams & organisation-wide

Course Code: VILT-PL

90-minute live session delivered virtually or in-person (Perfect for use as part of a blended learning program)

This programme is available for groups and teams

Leaders today need to be more than just distant authority figures who simply issue commands; they are mentors, connectors, and visionaries who lead through inspiration and influence. This requires a profound psychological shift.
This course will help you to understand the psychological underpinnings of leadership and the principles that influence behaviors and decision-making. This creates a platform for cultivating the self-awareness, adaptability, and empathy needed to inspire and influence others, navigate rapid change, and drive success.
Whether you're aspiring to be a leader, currently in a leadership role, or simply interested in the dynamics of leadership, this course is designed to provide valuable insights that bridge theory with real-world application.

 

  • Are you curious about exploring the deeper psychological aspects of leadership?
  • Are you open to exploring different leadership perspectives and how to adapt your approach to suit various situations and contexts?
  • Would it help you to uncover your own cognitive biases and learn how to make more informed decisions?
  • Have you ever considered how your mindset affects how you behave and how you see yourself as a leader?

 

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

  • Define the core principles that align with the psychology of 21st century leadership

  • Explain the concept of adaptive leadership and how to select an appropriate leadership style

  • Analyze different perspectives of the leadership role

  • Explain the impact of cognitive bias on decision-making
