“Charisma is really about how we portray ourselves and engage with people on a deeper level.”
In this episode, organizational psychologist Richard Reid talks to us about the power of charisma and why being charismatic may not mean exactly what you think it does.
Learn about the difference between our System 1 and System 2 brains, how to unlock your charisma, and engage people to create the best outcomes for everyone.
We also talk about how leaders can more effectively lead through crisis, why emotional intelligence is key and silence is underrated.
Plus, so much more!
“When we create space in conversations and validate positions, even if we don’t agree with them, it makes people feel psychologically safe. When they do, they bring the best versions of themselves, speak up when they don’t understand things, etc. When they don’t, they shut down or leave.”
Charisma is a continuum, as well as a leadership skill that can be developed. This episode is a great temperature check and place to tap into your charismatic leadership style.
