Leadership in the Middle East has never been as vital as it is in
the wake of the global financial crisis and the Arab Spring -- yet
there is a lack of detailed knowledge concerning strategies for
developing capacity in leadership, national skills and knowledge
management. This volume aims to address this deficit. This book is
the first text on the subject of leadership development in the
Middle East to be published in English (drawing on both English and
Arabic scholarship) and will contribute to the knowledge and
understanding of leadership theory and practice in the global
economy. The volume provides in-depth analysis of the social,
political and economic factors that shape leadership capacity
building efforts and shows how leadership behaviors and practices
differ from those in the West, reflecting an ethic of care, social
responsibility and concern for developing both organization and
individual capabilities as well as fostering community improvement
and nation-building and advancing social justice and human
well-being. The book reveals the complexity of leadership behaviors
in the region and contextualizes analyses with broader contemporary
debates including migration, governance, climate change and
political leadership succession. The book also includes original
insights into the role of women in leadership in business, politics
and the community. This unique volume will benefit international
organizational behavior/development specialists, international
human resource development practitioners and students at
undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It will be invaluable to
development specialists, HR consultants and practitioners on
assignment in the Middle East and for policy and capacity
development experts in NGOs and international organizations such as
the ILO, UN and World Bank. Contributors: S. Abuznaid, A.J. Ali, R.
