This book considers the limitations of current leadership research and practice, and provides suggestions for using evidence-based best practices for developing leadership in oneself and others.
Leadership practitioners and those who seek to develop leadership are concerned with whether they are using evidence-based best practices to develop leadership capacity in themselves and others. Are we indeed using best practices in the study, practice, and development of leadership? What's Wrong With Leadership? seeks to draw attention to the limitations of extant work on leadership, and to provide suggestions for a way forward.
Presenting chapters on topics ranging from research methodology, gender and cross-cultural issues in leadership studies, and the role of the humanities in our understanding of leadership, the book represents a rigorous multidisciplinary collaboration.
This is a must-read for graduate students studying leadership, leadership consultants and trainers, leadership scholars, and anyone who practices, teaches, or seeks to develop leadership. It will help expand the horizons of how we think about and practice leadership.
