O knihe

The book describes the theories and models of leadership that have developed over time, and provides an analytical and multidisciplinary framework for discussion of leaders and leadership from individual, organizational, and societal perspectives.Are leaders born or made? Does each society get the leaders it deserves? How-and why-is leadership `rhetoric` different from leadership in reality? l l Leadership is one of the most talked about yet least understood concepts in current business and society. This book explores how theoretical models and views of leadership have evolved over time; how leadership can be investigated from individual, organizational, and societal perspectives; and perennial dilemmas and emerging approaches in Leadership Studies. Positioning its discussion within a multidisciplinary framework that touches on management, sociology, philosophy, anthropology, history, literature, and politics, this book examines and critiques the common assumptions that inform the ways in which leaders and leadership are recognized, rewarded, and developed. It provides a valuable and thought-provoking overview for students and academics interested in leadership and management, practising leaders, leadership development consultants, and policy makers.
