Leadership: A Critical Review and Guide

Over recent decades, the notion of leadership has become increasingly significant in organisational and management literature. Leadership: A Critical Review and Guide provides both a map of the leadership territory, and a guide through it. The book presents an overview of the main strands of the theoretical and empirical evidence associated with the study of leadership; highlights the different ways in which leadership is envisaged; and explores current developments in the thinking and practice of leadership. In so doing, it discusses and reviews some of the most important contributions to this field of study. Leadership: A Critical Review and Guide is designed for students of leadership; those working in leadership positions; and for human resource professionals and management academics.
