Leadership has been measured by firms such as Jobvite, along with other aspects that, according to the firm, motivate an employee to accept a vacancy.
Within a PwC study, the firm asked CEOs around the world what skills they expected from an employee.
GP Strategies conducted a study where it was given the task of investigating what are the skills that employees most ask to develop in a company.
A psychologist classified the leadership based on the age of people and their argument is an interesting point about talent management today.
Leadership is a broad topic that in at least three studies is addressed based on the factors by which candidates accept jobs, according to Jobvite. There’s a study of PwCin which the firm asked CEOs in the world, what were the skills desired in a collaborator and GP Strategies It measured which were the skills that the employees asked to develop.
Leadership according to your age
For the psychologist Northeastern University, Laurie Kramer, ensures that your age determines the type of leadership you can have, but not the quality of it. In his argument, he explains that the first children of a family, as well as the only children, develop their autonomy and self-confidence, in addition to becoming the first-born of a group of siblings, if there are any, they gain confidence as leaders by become that figure between them.
If you are the youngest brother in a family, you will surely develop a leadership based on exploration, at least that is what the doctor argues. Kramerexplaining that by being exposed to a variety of experiences and knowledge, their leadership is defined to that extent, which is even formed based on the skills they learn from their siblings or older brother, in addition to the fact that there is a tendency to receive less attention and time than the firstborn of the family, so they undergo experiences such as going to school alone, which defines characteristics such as explorers and good observers, which mark their leadership.
When it comes to the middle siblings in a family, they end up developing leadership based on communication, since in the absence of attention from their parents or guardians, they learn to express themselves effectively.
Regarding leadership not only learned, but as a reason to accept a job, a study of Jobvite He argued what the main benefits of a company were when they accepted a job.
The 29 percent assured that they were looking for a company leadership based on clear values and culture, while a 21 percent I expected this leadership at the head of the guarantee of quality of work that the company has.
From this point of view, it is essential to add studies such as the one PwC conducted among CEOs and discovered that the 94 percent from them he expected leadership among his collaborators. A 79 percent said expect emotional intelligence.
This leadership perspective goes further in a study of GP Strategieswhere the firm argues that of the skills that interviewed employees coincided in being able to develop in a company, the 21 percent of them asked to head leadership but of change.
There are very interesting arguments around leadership and the most valuable thing in these is that depending on your age is the type you perform.
