Thoughts

We don't let a thought guide us until we feel it's worth it, and we make that evaluation before we have any (rational) proof or justification. We give little priority to working out thoughts if we have no idea of their value. "What's in it for me?"

The other

When people observe one another, behavioural alignment can be detected at many levels, from the physical to the mental. Likewise, when people process the same highly complex stimulus sequences, such as films and stories, alignment is detected in the elicited brain activity. In early sensory areas, shared neural patterns are coupled to the low-level properties of the stimulus (shape, motion, volume, etc.), while in high-order brain areas, shared neural patterns are coupled to high-levels aspects of the stimulus, such as meaning.

Successful social interactions require such alignments (both behavioural and neural), as communication cannot occur without shared understanding. However, we need to go beyond simple, symmetric (mirror) alignment once we start interacting. Interactions are dynamic processes, which involve continuous mutual adaptation, development of complementary behaviour and division of labour such as leader-follower roles. Here, we argue that interacting individuals are dynamically coupled rather than simply aligned.

The leader

A common starting point is:

"if we maximise the person's importance in the organisation, there is a good chance that the organisation will become 'larger'.

This requires a believe that,

  • people have unique talents
  • the development of these outstanding talents is best for people and the business community

Therefore we need charismatic supervisors who make the "best" perform better.
