What is charisma, and how does it benefit leaders? When can it become toxic? Why do people follow charismatic leaders even when it may not be in their best interest? And why should leaders focus on developing an inspirational leadership style rather than relying on charisma?
Jon Stokes examines the darker side of charismatic leadership and its impact on followers. He explores how leaders can foster growth rather than dependence. An Associate Fellow at Oxford University's Said Business School and co-founder of Stokes Jolly, a leadership consulting and advisory firm, Jon teaches, writes, and coaches CEOs and leadership teams on effective leadership strategies.
