Depth Leadership: Unlocking Unconscious Potential in the Workplace
Depth Leadership guides leaders to implement their ethical responsibility to ensure that individuals, communities and the planet co-exist as creatively, constructively and sustainably as possible. The book explores a transformative leadership approach based on a foundation of depth psychology and systems thinking, in which leaders work beneath, between and beyond.
By working beneath, the leader should actively pursue integration of the whole self or psyche, both the conscious (on-the-surface) self and the unconscious (under-the-surface) self, which includes the body and the imagination, to unlock potential, resolve conflict and help the individual psyche to thrive. Leaders must pursue integration and build healthy relationships between people to help groups and communities thrive. They need to consider factors beyond their own group or organisation, using an integrative approach towards larger systems, including governance systems and the natural environment, to ensure a thriving planet.
Grounded in academically sound theory, but discussed from the perspective of a layperson, and extensively illustrated by award-winning artist Katherine Glenday, the ideas discussed in this book will benefit anyone leading a group or a team, whether it be in a formal organisation, or a more informal social setting.
