Περίληψη | This study investigates the concept of emotional leadership and its impact on behavioral
traps within organizations. Emotional leadership, rooted in emotional intelligence,
emphasizes understanding, managing, and leveraging emotions to inspire and motivate
teams. It highlights the importance of soft skills such as empathy, self-awareness, and
critical thinking in leadership, contrasting with traditional task-focused leadership
models. Emotional leaders create a positive work environment, foster open
communication, and build trust, which are crucial in navigating the complexities of
modern organizational settings.
The study explores how emotional leadership can mitigate various cognitive biases and
behavioral traps that hinder effective decision-making. These include groupthink,
confirmation bias, anchoring, overconfidence, and the sunk cost fallacy. Emotional
leaders promote psychological safety, encouraging diverse viewpoints and critical
analysis, which counteracts groupthink and fosters a culture of inclusivity and
openness. By being self-aware and empathetic, emotional leaders reduce confirmation
bias, enabling more balanced and informed decisions. They also challenge the
anchoring effect by fostering mindfulness and encouraging teams to reassess their
assumptions continually. Furthermore, emotional leadership addresses overconfidence
bias by modeling humility and seeking feedback, thereby promoting realistic self-assessment
and critical thinking. It helps teams avoid the sunk cost fallacy by focusing
on future opportunities rather than past investments, encouraging adaptability and
resilience. Emotional leadership also enhances conflict resolution skills, creating a
culture where conflicts are addressed proactively and constructively.
The practical implications of this study suggest that incorporating emotional
intelligence training in leadership development programs can significantly improve
decision-making processes and organizational performance. Emotional leadership
builds organizational resilience, adaptability, and a psychologically safe environment
that values diversity and continuous learning. These qualities are essential in the
dynamic and interconnected world of the information age, where leaders must navigate
rapid technological advancements and changing market conditions.
In conclusion, emotional leadership is a powerful tool for enhancing decision-making
and organizational success. By fostering an environment of empathy, openness, and
critical thinking, emotional leaders enable their teams to make more informed, rational,
and effective decisions, ultimately driving long-term strategic goals and organizational
resilience.
