PRINCIPLES OF
THE CHARISMA LAYERS
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK
The Charisma Layers Leadership Development Framework is built on one foundational truth:
The modern leader is not a leader with followers but a leader to other leaders.
This means that people don’t follow you because of who you are, but because of who they become in the space you create for their self-leadership.
​
These are the main principles of the Charisma Layers Leadership Development Framework, which is the methodology of the Executive Coaching for Modern Leaders program.
CHARISMA IS A
STRATEGIC TOOL
OF MODERN LEADERS
For modern leaders working with experienced, highly skilled and talented individuals, charisma is more than just a valuable personal trait like charm—it’s a strategic tool. Charismatic leadership enables you to create an environment where your vision resonates, your presence inspires trust and commands respect, and where your teams feel both motivated and valued.
THE GOAL OF YOUR LEADERSHIP IS OTHERS' SELF-LEADERSHIP
Leadership starts with how you perceive and lead yourself. You set the tone for self-leadership for your teams by establishing psychological safety to experiment and fail, as well as be authentic and brilliant. True leadership lies in equipping your teams with leadership skills to navigate uncertainty, demands, challenges, opportunities, and success.
INTRINSIC MOTIVATION IS KEY TO TOP-LEVEL PERFORMANCE
Charismatic leadership is not about giving orders and supervising the completion of routine tasks. Working with top talent means elevated demands on your leadership. By meeting your team's psychological needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness, you ignite their best work and accelerate the speed of reaching desired outcomes for your organization.
