LEADING WITH DEPTH: NEW BOOK RELEASE 2023

LEADING WITH DEPTH: THE IMPACT OF EMOTIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS ON LEADERSHIP

This accessible book guides us through the emotional and relational fallacies of organizational leadership while offering practical routes out of them. Professor Claudia Nagel explores the leader as an individual and the context of leadership within organizations, covering concepts such as attachment theory, women in leadership, and hybrid working.
Claudia has invited several experts to write case-studies – they include Gilles Amado, Birgitte Bonnerup, Philip Boxer, Halina Brunning, Annemette Hasselager, Manfred FR Kets de Vries, Olya Khaleelee, Fiona Martin, Ajit Menon, Rose Mersky, Mal O’Connor , Larissa Philatova, Martin Ringer, Rob Ryan, and Kalina Stamenova.

Leadership goes well beyond efficient management, and the significance of emotions on the success of organizations is often underestimated. In  Leading With Depth: The Impact of Emotions and Relationships on Leadership , Claudia Nagel guides us through the emotional and relational fallacies of organizational leadership from both the personal and the systemic perspective.

Nagel expertly weaves theory, including attachment, neuroscientific, psychodynamic, psychosocial, and psychoanalytic, with practical advice. She looks at the leader as an individual and leadership as a context within systems such as groups, organizations, and societies. The book is divided into two parts and contains forty figures to illustrate important aspects of leadership. The first chapter in each part is purely theoretical followed by more method-oriented and practical chapters, which are complemented by pertinent case studies from well-known experts in the field (coaches, consultants, or academics). Each chapter concludes with a brief overview of the key learnings for the reader to take away. In this way, Nagel encourages practical learning and application and engagement with the text.

Nagel’s clear language spares the reader of academic jargon and is highly readable. The book successfully bridges the gap from theoretical concepts to real-life application and will be of value to incoming and experienced leaders alike, as well as organizational consultants and executive coaches looking to inform their practice.

PRESIDENT AND CEO FOR ISPSO

Dr. Claudia Nagel is now starting her term as President and CEO of ISPSO. The International Society for the Psychoanalytic Study of Organizations is the only global organization that brings together psychoanalytic and psychodynamic consultants, coaches and academics in the context of organizations. In annual global symposia and regional meetings, research results as well as consulting experiences are shared.

The strategic goals of Claudia Nagel for ISPSO focus on developing an organization that is even more open and attractive to the outside world and acts as a platform for dialogue and sharing of knowledge with partners and interested people and future clients:

“I imagine an organization which is known for its inspirational, intellectual and helpful thoughts and reflections about the emotional states and the undercurrents prevalent in all kinds of organizations, such as corporations, public and political institutions and NGOs. By that I do not mean to network only with the institutions, I rather mean creating human connections to their leaders. I believe we can and should have regular meetings with the leaders of such organizations to discuss their problems through our psychoanalytic perspective on their issues. “

CLAUDIA NAGEL APPOINTED AS FULL PROFESSOR AT THE VU

CLAUDIA NAGEL APPOINTED AS FULL PROFESSOR AT THE VU

Claudia Nagel appointed as full professor at the VU with a chair on change and identity in PPP

Organization scientist Claudia Nagel has been appointed full professor by the Faculty Board of Social Sciences with effect from November 1st 2020.

Nagel is a leading expert in strategy and change processes. Since March 2016, she has been appointed Visiting Professor within Hull University Business School in the United Kingdom.In addition to her academic appointments, Nagel runs her own consultancy, Nagel & Company Leadership Consulting. Department head Issy Drori:”The unique combination of high-quality scientific expertise with extensive practical experience in the financial sector makes Claudia Nagel a unique personality. With her arrival, knowledge development toward public-private partnerships will receive an important impulse, both for science and for decision-makers and leaders in administrative practice.”

Criminal money

The chair is the core of a new research program called “Public Private Partnership in the Financial sector” that focuses on public and private relationships in the financial sector. In particular, the research program will focus on the issue of public-private partnerships around criminal money, financial resources used for terrorist purposes and money laundering practices.

Special collaboration

The research program is an initiative of the Department of Organization Studies and is led by Professors Marcel Veenswijk and Issy Drori. “We will investigate how public and private parties work together on this issue. Not only banks contribute to this, but also the police and the Ministry of Justice. That is a complex issue, because in practice parties can also be each other’s opponent. Consider the investigation that is now being conducted by the FIOD into ABN Amro. ING was previously discredited about money laundering practices. We see it as a promising fact that these parties, despite their conflicting interests, are working together in this research and sit at the table together to look for connecting factors for better collaboration,” says Veenswijk.

Nagel’s appointment is for five years and is based on an open recruitment procedure. It is partly funded by the Ministry of Finance (FIOD), the Ministry of Justice and Security and ABN AMRO. Two fully funded PhD projects are also linked to the program. Dr. Claudia Nagel says: “I am proud and happy to have been appointed full professor at this renowned University and this unique new research program. I am looking forward to working with the faculty and partners to meet the challenge of strengthening our understanding and knowledge of this “socially very important and extremely relevant subject”.
