Opis

This book explores the notion of authenticity in leaders and examines how authentic leadership is supported by emotional intelligence (EI), resiliency, and mindfulness. In identifying mindfulness as a key to developing self-awareness along with sincere and transparent relationships with others, the author argues that mindfulness allows leaders to achieve greater authenticity and moral perspective in their leadership journey. As authentic leadership increases empowerment and inclusion, this work pays particular attention to how mindfulness can help support leaders from hisotrically marginalized communities and women leaders to lead in a way that is more congruent with their identities and values. Understanding the antecedents of authentic leadership in mindfulness and other related psychological constructs will extend research on leadership development. Based on empirical studies, as well as theoretical constructs, this book will appeal to researchers with expertise in organizational change, diversity and inclusion, strategy, workplace spirituality, and other topics related to leadership.
