Click here to read the article. The High Impact Leader: Moments Matter by Bruce J. Avolio and Fred Luthans presents a framework for authentic leadership development. It argues that pivotal life experiences, both positive and negative, significantly shape leadership skills, more so than formal training alone. The book emphasises the importance of self-awareness, psychological capital (PsyCap—confidence, hope, optimism, resilience), and aligning one's actual self with their aspirational self. Practical steps and numerous examples are provided to guide readers in building their own authentic leadership development plans, focusing on sustainable and ethical performance. A Gallup poll on authentic leadership further supports the book's core arguments.
