"Authentic Leadership - Leading yourself and others authentically

Authentic Leadership is based on the experience that people are particularly efficient, creative and positively motivated when they consider what they are doing to be coherent, meaningful and right. The module "Authentic Leadership" offers a sound introduction to what it means to be authentic. Central to this are two basic skills: Self-reflection and self-awareness. Building on this, the module at the beginning of the Leadership Talent Academy lays the foundation for topics that will be addressed in greater depth in other modules.

Contents:

• The importance of authenticity for one's own life, especially the leadership role
• Self-reflection: questioning one's own motives, values and goals
