Leading With Heart and Mind: Neurobiological Dimensions of Decision-Making for Sustainable and Circular Economy Leadership
Abstract
Leadership decisions rarely follow a purely logical path. In our exploration of decision-making processes, we observed that cognitive reasoning, emotional signals, and physiological responses often intersect. Moments of increased heart rate, tightened muscles, or altered breathing are not just bodily reactions—they shape the way choices are made, especially under pressure. Drawing on both the literature and insights from a focused exploratory study, we argue that effective leadership emerges when these internal systems—mind, emotion, and body—are in balance. Yet, decision-making models tend to prioritize cognitive skills, often neglecting the embodied experiences that silently guide leaders' actions. This work invites a reconsideration of such frameworks, suggesting that greater physiological self-awareness may unlock a more adaptive, responsive, and authentic approach to leadership.
