The Psychology of Leadership by Sebastien Page

The Psychology of Leadership takes a fresh, research‑based approach to understanding what makes effective leaders by applying insights from positive psychology, sports psychology, and personality psychology rather than traditional business‑only frameworks. The book blends scientific research with real‑world examples, anecdotes, and practical advice to show how leaders can master the “mental game” of leadership by improving self‑awareness, emotional intelligence, decision‑making, resilience, communication, and relationships. It emphasizes understanding personalities and hidden motivations in teams, setting meaningful goals, and fostering engagement and well‑being—not just authority or technical skills—to inspire and guide others successfully.
