And she contends that even with our severe challenges and disruptions of today, she is “convinced that this is a time for new forms of leadership to support systems everywhere to make the transition to a new world that is beckoning—a more just, equitable and sustainable world, where we address the economic, social and planetary issues of these times.” Her thinking, “based on a couple of theoretical perspectives and leadership experiences in the midst of this complexity has led me to what I call dialectical leadership.” She defines this as a “process through which leaders model practices that inspire positive transformative actions and outcomes, in a context of multiple, conflicting and compounded forces.” She proposes six shifts in ways of thinking; involving, in her words: engaging dialectical thinking, going a step further than polarity management; a change in the leader’s role; cognitive and emotional space for forward movement; engage the logic of attraction as opposed to the logic of replacement; storytelling and galvanizing action.</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2025 117","pages":"53-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ltl.20895","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144289271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He starts by contrasting servant leaders with people who have a dominant leadership style, noting that the “problem with the dichotomy between servant leadership and dominance is that it is fabricated.” He defines personal power as “our belief in our own capability to create impact. Unlike formal power, which focuses on external qualities like authority and resource control, personal power is an internal psychological state that radiates outward to influence those around us.” He then delineates The Psychology of Courage (Individual Power); Personal Responsibility; Internal Orientation; and the Big Picture (Group Power). Within the latter, he writes: “Research led by Pamela Smith at University of California, San Diego found that those with personal power think and speak more abstractly.” He also writes about status roles in teams, curiosity, and leadership trust. Citing the work of C. Shawn Burke in <i>The Leadership Quarterly</i>, he says leadership trust boils down to “three features: trust in the leader’s integrity, trust in the leader’s ability, and trust in the leader’s benevolence.” The author concludes that “in the end great leaders serve the group and so we respect them.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2025 117","pages":"59-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ltl.20893","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144289275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rather than the common fear of replacing humans with AI, she foresees “augmenting human activity with AI.” She contends that “this duality is explained by Moravec’s Paradox, developed by Hans Moravec, who was a pioneering AI researcher in the 1980s. The paradox is based on his extensive work and highlights a counterintuitive observation: tasks that are easy for humans are often hard for machines, and tasks that are difficult for humans can be easier for machines.” She explains three ways leaders can utilize Moravec’s Paradox. In her words: 1. Leverage AI for Analytical Tasks, Keep Humans for Creativity; 2. Augment, Don’t Replace, Human Judgment; 3. Recognize the Importance of Context and Adaptability. She invokes the chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov, who “concluded that human judgment and models integrated via the <i>right process</i> result in better decisions than a strong model alone or even a strong model paired with a brilliant human but employing a weaker process of working together.” This “conclusion became known as Kasparov’s Law.” For leaders to apply Kasparov’s law, she outlines three steps, in her words: 1. Build Strong Human-AI Teams; 2. Design Processes that Optimize Collaboration; 3.
