5 - A power audit for politicians

Should we do a power audit for politicians? Get a sense of how they'll be handling power before we elect them? Neuroscience shows why this might be worthwhile and political science shows how it could be done.

Find out more on the neuroscience of power in Ian Robertson's 'The Winner Effect' (https://ianrobertson.org/product/the-winner-effect) and on how to analyze political leaders' relationship to power in Prof Margaret Hermann's work (https://www.maxwell.syr.edu/news/article/what-makes-them-tick).

politicwise - politics meets personal development
politicwise is where politics meets personal development.
It’s for those who want to make a difference in the world out there, while working on themselves: being the change they want to see. It’s for learners, beginners, the open-minded.
I bring together an eclectic mix of political leaders, scientists and change-makers to discuss the daily challenges of political leadership and the mindsets, tools and routines to thrive in politics.
