Creating an authentic leadership style that aligns with your personal values and character can have a host of benefits.

You'll learn from the latest research who is most at risk of feeling inauthentic, what this means for your credibility and your team's engagement, and how to decide when to be yourself and when to adapt to fit your organisation's needs.

How to be human at work. The HBR Emotional Intelligence Series features insightful and essential reading on the human side of professional life from the pages of Harvard Business Review. Each book in the series offers proven research on how emotions influence our work lives, practical advice for managing difficult people and situations, and inspiring essays on tending to our emotional well-being at work. Uplifting and practical, these books describe the social skills critical for ambitious professionals to master.
