Effective Leadership in a Turbulent World

Abstract

In today’s world, we are confronted with a great deal of complexity, resulting in numerous business challenges that demand innovative leadership styles. To overcome these challenges, motivate staff members, and accomplish business strategies, leadership should shift from hierarchical to creative mixed forms of shared leadership. The aim of leadership is to encourage team members to reach their full potential and achieve business objectives as a team. This involves fostering an environment where leaders are receptive to personal and professional growth, as well as the development of their colleagues. Effective communication is crucial in achieving this goal. Good communication enables us to understand people and circumstances more effectively. It fosters trust and respect and facilitates the exchange of innovative ideas, problem-solving, and collaboration among team members. This review article explores the connection between leadership that starts with emotional intelligence and self-awareness and the fundamental principles of nonviolent communication, which is a crucial skill for a leader to connect with his team. Psychological and communication constructs will be discussed in this chapter. However, there is still a need for research on the implementation and effect of this form of communication and innovative leadership styles.
