Total-brain Leadership and Innovation – How to be successful in the knowledge economy.pdf
Taken from Introduction: In order to be effective and successful organizations and nations need exemplary leaders, leaders who know how to use their fullest potential. Therefore, Warren Bennis (Ref. 1) focuses on the necessity of becoming a healthy, fully integrated human being before a person can show exemplary or integral leadership. According to Bennis leadership is closely connected to personal growth and at each successive stage or level of personal growth, one transcends and integrates the previous level of being, consciousness, and identity. The ability to master one’s context is essential for any successful leader, and one cannot master what one cannot “see”.
Most leaders in the present chaotic world are guided by the ‘monkey mind’ to use this metaphor from teachers of yoga and the martial arts. They have not mastered their brainwaves, probably because they never saw them. Advanced bio- and neurofeedback tools can make the waves of our brain, heart and body not only visible on a computer screen, but can also teach us how to learn to master them. If a leader is not able to effectively respond to all feedback from the environment, including worldwide innovations, he or she cannot be a successful leader. Therefore, the more levels of development one has transcended and included, the more one sees, the more expansive and profound his/her mastery of content and context is, and the fuller the expression as exemplary and integral leader.
