The Gartner Talent Angle · 2025-05-06 · 47 min
Leader and manager development was CHROs' top priority in 2025, according to the 2025 Gartner HR Priorities Survey. When employees are frustrated by the leadership at the organization, their engagement, performance and productivity suffer. Adam Galinsky, professor at Columbia Business School and author of "Inspire: The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others," joins the Talent Angle to share research on what makes leaders inspiring, rather than infuriating, and how organizations can adapt their leadership development strategies to nurture inspiration at scale. Adam Galinsky is a celebrated social psychologist at Columbia Business School known for his research on leadership, decision-making, teams, and ethics. His scientific research - consisting of more than 1,000 studies published in more than 200 scientific articles - has been cited more than 64,000 times. In Adam's latest book, "Inspire The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others," he weaves together his decades of research and global consulting experience to reveal the science of how to become more inspiring.
