Quotes by Parissa Behnia:
“A 3D leader is difficult, dismissive, divisive. They are high-value, high performers, have high positions in an organization, but because of being that 3D leader, they are starting to diminish their value.”
“Empathy means that we are looking to find out what is driving the behavior of these 3D leaders.”
“In times of stress, the dark sides of our personalities always come out. But it’s also sometimes the dark sides that help us be super productive and get the results that we’re looking for.”
