I examined the role of social perspective taking in leadership decision-making by investigating how a group of 70 leaders made sense of a hypothetical workplace dilemma in order to understand how they used their capacity for social perspective taking as part of their decision-making process. The majority of these leaders work in North America, are Caucasian, speak English as their primary language, are between 20-60 years old and are mid-level managers working for a large city government. My purpose was to understand how these leaders incorporated social perspective taking into their decision-making process, and what this process looked like at three different levels of psychological development, as measured by the Lectical Assessment System.

520 $a I examined the role of social perspective taking in leadership decision-making by investigating how a group of 70 leaders made sense of a hypothetical workplace dilemma in order to understand how they used their capacity for social perspective taking as part of their decision-making process. The majority of these leaders work in North America, are Caucasian, speak English as their primary language, are between 20-60 years old and are mid-level managers working for a large city government. My purpose was to understand how these leaders incorporated social perspective taking into their decision-making process, and what this process looked like at three different levels of psychological development, as measured by the Lectical Assessment System.
520 $a Data I analyzed were short essays written by this group of leaders in response to a dilemma as part of an online assessment. My inquiry was guided by two research questions: 1) How, if at all, does this group of leaders use social perspective taking as part of their decision-making process, and 2) what are the similarities within and differences across three levels of psychological development? I employed an educational research methodology, developmental maieutics, which enabled me to describe the sequence of psychological development around social perspective taking and decision-making.
520 $a Findings from my first research question suggest that: a) these leaders did use social perspective taking as part of their decision-making process; b) this involved three distinct processes 1) perspective taking, 2) perspective seeking, and 3) decision-making; c) these three processes included a total of twelve themes. Findings from my second research question suggest that: a) there are important similarities within and differences across three levels of psychological development; b) these similarities and differences can be organized according to these three processes and twelve themes; and c) variances across developmental levels can be viewed both in terms of 1) the deeper structure of how these leaders described their social perspective taking and decision-making process and 2) the content of what these leaders discussed in their essays. Based on these findings I make several recommendations for how educators might shape learning initiatives to better support leaders in developing their capacity for social perspective taking and decision-making.
