The Emotional and Social Intelligence competency of Inspirational Leadership means having the ability to inspire and guide others towards a common goal or vision, to get the job done, and to bring out their best qualities along the way. With inspiration you can connect with something meaningful, and articulate a shared mission in a way that motivates people and offers a sense of purpose beyond day-to-day tasks.

Inspirational leaders are agents of positive change, sometimes going against the grain of conventional norms or taking risks in their approach. These kinds of leaders ultimately leave the people they work with feeling inspired, motivated, and connected.

So how does one develop this competency? What does it look like in different contexts?

In Inspirational Leadership: A Primer, Daniel Goleman and colleagues introduce Emotional Intelligence and dive deep into the Inspirational Leadership competency. It’s both a quick read and a thorough overview. The authors illustrate the values and styles of inspiring leaders, and offer concrete means for the reader to implement in order to elevate their potential for inspiring others.

This is the twelfth in a series of Primers that explores each of the 12 Emotional and Social Intelligence Leadership Competencies, with a thorough overview of the Competency Model itself.

Daniel Goleman, Richard Boyatzis, Annie McKee, Matthew Taylor, Mette Miriam Boell, Matthew Lippincott, and Claudio Fernández-Aráoz elaborate on the Inspirational Leadership competency: what it means, why it matters, what a variety of research studies have shown, and how to develop your capacity for Inspirational Leadership in both personal and professional settings.

Here's some of what's included:

  • Overview of Emotional Intelligence
  • Overview of the Competency Model in Leadership
  • Inspirational Leadership: An Introduction
  • The Basis of Inspirational Leadership
  • Inspiration and Our Noble Purpose
  • Coaching Leaders to Authentic Inspiration
