    Good leadership requires a combination of both analytical and creative thinking.

    Whether it’s in business or politics, most of us have a similar idea of what makes a good leader. They’re quick to grasp the facts and figures of a situation, analyze them, and find solutions. 

    There’s a term for this approach, namely: people relying on data and logic to come up with precise answers and conclusions. It’s called left-brain thinking and leadership in many fields relies on it with good reason – it’s worked great in science, maths, and other areas that have helped the world progress.

    However, just as the term suggests, analytical and data-driven left-brain thinking isn’t all our minds are capable of, which is something that leaders should take note of.

    The key message here is: Good leadership requires a combination of both analytical and creative thinking.

    When we rely only on left-brain thinking, we miss out on the valuable insights that come from our wider-reaching right-brain thinking. Whereas the left brain works logically and quickly, narrowing things down and analyzing them, the right brain deals with qualitative factors such as emotion, and explores more broadly while looking for connections between things. This kind of processing is linked to creativity and problem-solving, and happens slowly and mostly when we’re not paying much attention.

    And as the authors learned, some leaders make use of this without even realizing it. During a survey, a group of leaders, who were all well versed in left-brain thinking, were asked when and where their best ideas came to them. The answers? In most cases, these leaders had eureka moments while they were far from their desks, not thinking about work. For example, ideas popped up while they were doing things like showering, having a conversation, or taking a walk. What this suggests is that when we give our left brain a break, the right brain quietly works away at the problems on our minds.

    However, this doesn’t mean that leaders should stop analyzing and simply wait for lightbulb ideas to surprise them. Good and efficient leadership means taking advantage of both processes; drilling down into the data whilst also considering the bigger, more qualitative picture.

    Ich bin begeistert. Ich liebe Bücher aber durch zwei kleine Kinder komme ich einfach nicht zum Lesen. Und ja, viele Bücher haben viel bla bla und die Quintessenz ist eigentlich ein Bruchteil.

    Genau dafür ist Blinkist total genial! Es wird auf das Wesentliche reduziert, die Blinks sind gut verständlich, gut zusammengefasst und auch hörbar! Das ist super. 80 Euro für ein ganzes Jahr klingt viel, aber dafür unbegrenzt Zugriff auf 3000 Bücher. Und dieses Wissen und die Zeitersparnis ist unbezahlbar.

    Extrem empfehlenswert. Statt sinnlos im Facebook zu scrollen höre ich jetzt täglich zwischen 3-4 "Bücher". Bei manchen wird schnelle klar, dass der Kauf unnötig ist, da schon das wichtigste zusammen gefasst wurde..bei anderen macht es Lust doch das Buch selbständig zu lesen. Wirklich toll

    Einer der besten, bequemsten und sinnvollsten Apps die auf ein Handy gehören. Jeden morgen 15-20 Minuten für die eigene Weiterbildung/Entwicklung oder Wissen.
