Publisher's Synopsis
There have always been many expectations and pressures on the leaders at the top and few on the rest. Silvia Damiano proposes to look at leadership through new lenses by turning the pyramid upside down and encouraging everybody to embrace their own leadership. In "Leadership is Upside Down," Silvia provides invaluable tools to enable anyone and everyone to unlock their potential and create their own personal leadership style by increasing self awareness and understanding the relationship between a brain that functions at its best and leadership effectiveness. This ensures that regardless of position or title, we are all able to inspire, motivate and empower others to excel and create a more positive, engaged and productive culture that meets the demands of the new 'era of work'. The i4 Neuroleader Revolution is an invaluable concept to anyone who wants to develop as an exceptional leader. The i4 Model has been created as a result of many years of Silvia's work in the field of leadership development and is reflective of the interactions that she has had with a diverse range of people from various backgrounds and positions, who share an inherent desire to become inspirational and transformational leaders. The i4 Neuroleader is a personal leadership model made up of four key competencies with sixteen underpinning pillars that is explored in detail throughout the book. This set of capabilities can unlock anyone's potential to succeed as a leader in any endeavour. By providing a greater insight and understanding firstly of ourselves and then of others, the i4 Neuroleader Model & Tool empowers us to make a real and positive impact upon our professional and personal lives and those of others, and ensures that we have the necessary skills and knowledge to be catalyst for change.
