Listen "Dr Susan Kahn | How is your unconscious self impacting your work?"
Episode Synopsis
How is your unconscious self impacting your work? Dr Susan Kahn, business psychologist and coach, explains what our unconscious self is, and how unlocking and thus bringing this buried side of us to the surface, can help us become better leaders.
Strategies to become more self-aware can help us engage with our unconscious self and can allow us to identify potential defence mechanisms which could be destructive at work. Dr Kahn emphasises how our defence mechanisms serve to be protective, however, they can limit what we can achieve at work and create negative differences in the way your team perceive you, compared to the way you perceive yourself. Dr Kahn suggests ways of identifying and addressing these behavioural patterns, which in time can help us become improved leaders.
