In all periods of time, there is a perceived shortage of qualified,
credible, and robust leadership skills. At the same time, what is
regarded as skilled leadership is contingent on economic,
political, institutional, and cultural conditions specific for a
period of time or a local setting. Leadership in the era of
managerial capitalism was focused on planning and administration,
and was seated in large-scale, divisionalized corporations. In the
1970s, this economic model started to wane and leadership was
advanced as the solution to a series of economic and social
concerns, now being a matter of meaning-making in the face of
uncertainty and ambiguity. With the expansion of the finance
industry and the deregulation of finance markets in the 1990s and
in the new millennium, yet another leadership model increasingly
prioritized economic value creation. In parallel to the economic,
political and institutional changes, the idea of leadership has
been strongly informed by new ideas about individualism and
masculinity, adding to the understanding of leadership as what is
anchored in widespread social beliefs about for example healthy
life styles, the virtues of physical exercise, and novel gender
relations. Aimed at scholars, researchers, students and policy
makers in the fields of Leadership, Management History and
Organizational Theory; Leadership Varieties examines predominant
ideas about the qualities and virtues of leadership in a historical
and cultural perspective.
