Abstract

This book addresses current and aspiring leaders from across the spectrum of organizational types and functional units and encompasses formal as well as informal leadership at all individual, team, unit, and global levels. Chapter one presents an historical overview of leadership and management theory development, outlining the professional and academic framework within which current narratives have evolved. The authors locate leaders as engaged in a complex journey traversing a challenging and rapidly-evolving terrain within a theatre of action that is undergoing a period of global crisis. The reader is introduced to the definitions and debates about leadership and management boundaries, differences, and overlapping responsibilities. Drawing on both theory and practice, current issues and topics are covered in depth.
