The book critically assesses the more conventional leadership training and development available to managers and in doing so equips readers with the analytical perspectives and tools needed to make up their own minds about the significance of leadership in contemporary organizations. Including a comprehensive review of the field to date, Topics covered include: Leadership and Integrity, Learning Leadership, Career individualization, Leadership development in the public sector and Leadership: Changing theories. Addressing the legitimate uncertainties about the nature of leadership, this is a distinctive and challenging text
