 | | Leaders, Make Curiosity the Core of Your Organizational Culture | | Oft overlooked is the central role that curiosity plays in crafting an organizational culture. To unlock the potential of their institutions and the people within them, great leaders need to demonstrate consistent curiosity in four key areas. The first? Be curious about the values and motivations of your employees in shaping and maintaining a corporate culture. | | | | | | |  | | How to Self-Promote—Without Sounding Self-Centered | | Promoting your own accomplishments can feel uncomfortable, and poses a dilemma: It can make you appear more confident and capable, but can also make you seem less warm, less friendly, and more selfish. On the other hand, self-deprecation or deflecting credit, may make you seem approachable but it diminishes your competency. New research, based on a series of 11 studies, suggests that dual promotion can both boost perceptions of warmth without harming perceptions of competence. Here's how to do it. | | | | | | |  | | Research: How Women Improve Decision-Making on Boards | | A study of directors at more than 200 publicly traded companies on the major stock exchanges in the U.S. and Europe aimed to address how the presence of women influences boards. It turns out their presence improves the quality of discussion—in a few distinct ways. | | | | | | |  | | The Power of Selfless Leadership | | Rasmus Hougaard and Jacqueline Carter—co-authors of the book, The Mind of the Leader: How to Lead Yourself, Your People, and Your Organization for Extraordinary Results—argue that good leadership isn't rooted in power or public speaking skills. They say that, in fact, mindfulness, selflessness, and compassion are the key components.

You'll also learn a simple ritual that could help you start you day with more focus and a clearer sense of your priorities. | | | | | | |  | | To Solve Big Problems, Make Everyone Feel Included in Your Mission | | It's human nature to want to spend our days working on something more than a paycheck, and the best leaders find ways to connect their teammates' work to something bigger. That starts by making everyone feel included in the mission. If your team feels connected to the mission, then making big bets and solving big problems will always be within your reach. Read on to learn how several prominent leaders instilled their teams with a sense of the organization's larger purpose, and how you can do the same. | | | | | | | | |
