Content:
"Leadership 2nd Edition offers a unique, highly-applied academic treatise on leadership, uniquely blending a chronological analysis of the last 100 years of leadership theory with exclusive CEO interviews. The case studies, expert insights and other teaching aids are timely and hard hitting, makes this textbook relevant, insightful, and informative, whilst a research chapter empowers the reader to competently question the leaders that shape our world. The world has turned on its political and corporate axis since Leadership 1st Edition was published, and it became necessary to produce a 2nd Edition that fully encapsulated, respected and observed these changes. Numerous new case studies, discussion starters and examples subsequently reflect today's volatile technological, political, financial and social shifts, whilst exclusive interviews with successful CEO's powerfully blend theory with practice. Readers will learn the importance of navigating leadership in the most testing of times, whilst a new chapter, 'Researching Leadership', offers the reader the ability to develop significantly as leadership researchers and to ably question reality in a post-truth world. A self-leadership chapter equips the reader to develop their own leadership capabilities, whilst retaining the ability to avoid destructive leadership. Ultimately, the reader will become empowered to appreciate the complex, intersectional nature of leadership and to learn what it takes to lead in today's politically, technologically and socially tumultuous world. This book will be particularly engaging for students and educators at secondary school, college, undergraduate and postgraduate level, and for leadership/management consultants. Whilst its' primary role remains as a core text for leadership, management & business modules, many other courses (e.g. psychology, politics, sociology) will also find it useful. It is packed full of teaching resources which educators will find particularly useful. It is the only textbook of its kind to offer such an applied view of leadership via the inclusion of 12 (mostly CEO) expert insights. The 1st Ed was an Amazon Hot New Release so it might also hold interested to a general readership"--
