- 245 Leadership principles for high performance with Edoardo Binda Zane
Jan 17, 2022
Poorly executed brainstorming is a leadership fail
Author and leadership coach Edoardo Binda Zane recognised early on that developing his emotional intelligence skills gave him an edge over his peers and enabled him to lead with influence and impact. Now Edoardo helps others to do the same through exploring the nuances of emotions, perspectives, biases and decision-making to make them leaders worth following. Edoardo shares his leadership insights, research findings and practical strategies for leading with emotional intelligence, including his three critical elements of trust in leadership.
Why you should listen: The must-have leadership qualities required to build trust
- Establishing leadership priorities
- Emotional intelligence as a leadership strength
- Expanding the leadership perspective to consider context
We explore transitioning from tasks into people stuff:
- Creating a corporate culture conducive to trust
- Team development driven by benevolence
- A leadership framework for moving from convention to creativity
Team Tips
- Get clear on your decision-making processes: use a decision-making matrix, or Occam’s razor (the easiest solution with the least assumptions), or implementation-payoff quadrant, or stop/start/keep, or future consequence wheel.
- Get clear on what kind of decision-making process it will be: consensus, democratic, consultative, unilateral.
- Try one creative activity with your team this week.
