Effective Leadership through Biology

Studies show that when certain chemicals are released through the body’s natural biological processes, an employee’s positive attitude toward work, productivity, and efficiency increase. We will explore what leadership behaviors trigger these chemicals and what behaviors release chemicals that actually work against the ultimate survival of the organization.

Discussion questions:

• Is focusing on the bottom line the most effective way to manage a workforce?
• Is there a way to lead individuals that increases trust and builds quality relationships?
• What does an organization need to effectively survive difficult periods?
