Hall of Mirrors: Gestalt in Leadership • Leading through Awareness

This book delves into individual and personal leadership development directly tied to the company's strategy, emphasizing the use of Gestalt psychotherapy for heightened awareness, a crucial aspect of leadership growth.

Reflect on how often you lead with this awareness and self-assessment. Consider the impact of your actions on working relationships, organizational culture, and overall performance.

The text explores decision-making effectiveness and the cultural environment conducive to implementing decisions. It guides leaders in setting clear behavioral objectives aligning personal growth with strategic objectives, offering insights into the mind's dynamics and navigating human challenges and opportunities. By engaging with existential principles, leaders can gain clarity and forge new paths where success and well-being intersect.

"In a hall of mirrors, one sees oneself; in a broader sense, one sees the world of which one is a part, upon which one depends, and which one helps shape. This book does not present another categorization and simplification of people. It does not offer another simplistic test system or a simple step-by-step leadership model. It does not simplify or distort leadership. On the contrary, it introduces and explains a way of working with management and leaders that focuses on the individual. And it takes place in the hall of mirrors, in collaboration with skilled and present individuals with extensive management experience and deep insight, including in Gestalt psychotherapy. The book’s approach to leadership development is based on three pillars: the paradox of change, the dynamics of polarities, and the leader’s responsibility." - From the preface by Steen Hildebrandt, professor emeritus

Structured as responses to inquiries from leaders in Danish and international business, this book caters to both formal and informal leaders across all levels aspiring to cultivate genuine and robust relational leadership skills.
