| Abstract: |
The article reviews *Leading with Depth: The Impact of Emotions and Relationships on Leadership*, a comprehensive exploration of leadership that emphasizes the unconscious emotional and relational influences on leaders and organizations. The book is divided into two parts: the first focuses on psychoanalytic concepts related to personal development, attachment styles, and emotional capacities such as "negative capability," while the second addresses systemic dynamics within teams and organizations, including ethics, social defenses against anxiety, and eco-leadership principles. It integrates theory with practical case studies contributed by experienced consultants, aiming to support leaders, organizational consultants, and academics in understanding and navigating complex emotional and relational challenges in leadership. The work highlights the importance of self-awareness, ethical reflection, and adaptive thinking in fostering effective and humane leadership amid uncertainty and change.
