A Rethinking Impulse by Klaus-Dieter Thill
Imagine a fisherman venturing out to sea in the early hours of dawn. The sky is clear, the waves are calm, and the day promises tranquillity. With practiced precision, he casts his nets and waits patiently for his first catch. As he enjoys the gentle breeze, he suddenly notices the water stirring violently.

It was a challenging time for Lea, who had taken over leadership of an innovative yet overstretched team six months earlier. Her team worked in product development, where deadlines were tight, expectations high, and dynamics often chaotic. Since stepping into the role, Lea had struggled to establish trust and harmony.

Imagine an ancient temple on a hill, where the air is filled with an aura of reverence and mystery. A young scholar climbs the steps, driven by a thirst for knowledge, a longing for a spark that will illuminate his soul and inspire his ideas.

Every step was a struggle for him, every incline an insurmountable obstacle. The other team members had noticed how often he fell behind, how much support he needed, and that cost time and energy – resources that were precious in the wilderness.

Have you ever wondered what it truly means, not merely to issue directives as a leader, but to genuinely enable your team – to cultivate an environment where each individual’s unique potential can flourish? At its core, enabling leadership demands a profound rethinking of our traditional notions of authority, control, and mere skill transfer.

In the domain of leadership, “soft skills” have grown increasingly vital. Yet, despite their pivotal role, many leaders suffer from a profound ‘Asynesis’ – a term rooted in the Greek “ἀσύνεσις,” meaning “lack of understanding.” Soft Skill Asynesis describes an absence of comprehension, or even an outright incapacity, to recognize the significance and value of social competencies. This concept signifies more than a simple deficit; it points to a deeper imbalance between the cognitive and social dimensions of leadership.
