Description
Leading in today's fast-paced world requires navigating uncertainty and conflict. However, heroic leaders often struggle to meet expectations. This book challenges traditional views on leadership by focusing on experience and the socio-political process of interaction between people. It presents a nuanced approach that considers communication, research, imagination, and ethical judgement as essential components of leadership practice. The contributors share their insights from diverse organisational settings, highlighting the importance of leaders becoming more aware of their emotional and social context. Ideal for academics and practitioners seeking to understand the everyday challenges of formal and informal leaders in various types of organisations, this book offers a practical resource for executives and students on leadership development programmes.
