Abstract

This article illustrates the way in which the fields of organizational neuroscience (ON), psychology, and leadership can be brought together to address how leadership skills in a business environment can be improved and leadership behavioural patterns can be shaped. This conceptual paper explores how Neuro-leadership will serve as a link between psychological theories and organizational neuroscience. ON studies also enhance opportunities to extend the leadership approach by applying a new-found understanding of neural activation pathways to decision-making. Self-Determination Theory (SDT) offers a detailed explanation of intrinsic motivational factors that are the key to the success of leaders. The neuro-leadership approach uses the SDT factors of autonomy, relatedness, and competence to improve upon leadership theories. In addition, the importance of emotion regulation for leaders is expressed.
