Schemas in Leadership (Paperback)

Paperback. Most leadership development focuses on what leaders do - communication, strategy, decision-making, executive presence. Those things matter. But they are not the source code.Underneath every leadership behavior sits something deeper: a schema. A learned pattern of meaning-making that silently determines what you notice, what you fear, what you assume about people, and what you repeat - especially under stress.In Schemas in Leadership, Master Certified Coach Daniela Aneva introduces a groundbreaking framework that bridges cognitive psychology, schema therapy, and executive development to reveal the hidden architecture behind leadership performance, culture, and fulfillment.Drawing on over 25 years of work with more than 5,000 leaders and teams at organizations including Google, Stiltz, BCI, and Takeda, Daniela maps the 12 most common schemas that derail even the most talented leaders - and offers a practical pathway to recognize, interrupt, and reshape them.In this book you will discover: Why smart, capable leaders keep repeating the same costly patterns - and how to break the cycleHow schemas operate at three levels: individual, relational, and organizationalThe schema loop - how triggers, stories, emotions, and coping responses self-reinforce over timeWhy your leadership impact multiplies as you rise - and why that makes schema work more urgent, not lessPractical tools for diagnosing schemas in yourself, your team, and your cultureHow schema-informed leadership creates psychological safety, high performance, and sustainable happiness For executives, coaches, HR leaders, and anyone who has ever wondered why doing all the right things is not enough - this is the missing layer.
