Dr. Nik Steffens
Bio: Nik Steffens is Associate Professor and Director of the Centre for Business and Organizational Psychology (CBOP) at The University of Queensland. His work focuses on identity and group processes bound up with leadership, motivation and health in social and organizational contexts. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles on these topics and he is co-editor of Organizational Psychology: Revisiting the Classic Studies (available in English and soon in Japanese). He is co-developer of the award-winning 5R Leadership Development Program that helps leaders to build inclusive teams in which members are engaged and well.
Abstract of the keynote: The social identity approach to leadership asserts that leadership is a group-based social influence process. This approach further argues that to be effective, leaders need to behave in ways (and to be seen) as creating, embodying, advancing, and embedding a shared sense of ‘we’ and ‘us’ (i.e., a shared social identity) among group members. However, like the field of leadership as a whole, this body of work has traditionally focused on whether and how leaders can motivate others and enhance their productivity, while neglecting leaders’ impact on followers’ mental health and well-being. In this talk, I will address this gap by discussing theory and empirical evidence that shows that leaders’ creation and advancement of a shared sense of ‘us’ serves as a foundation not only for members’ increased motivation and performance but also for reducing burnout and enhancing their well-being. This underscores the imperative for leaders in today’s organizations to actively cultivate a shared sense of ‘we-ness’ among their teams. Doing so is a critical resource that bolsters collective efficacy and transforms the workplace into a nurturing environment, fostering both individual and collective well-being.
