True leadership has always been more difficult to maintain in challenging times, but the unique stressors facing organisations throughout the world today call for renewed attention to what constitutes truly positive leadership.
This book is divided up as follows:
- Part I – Definition and impact of authentic leadership – considers the need for authentic leadership, gives an overview of what is generally understood by Authentic Leadership. It also focuses on the impact of leadership authenticity on inter-relational trust, on individual and team authentic leadership effectiveness.
- Part II – Development of authentic leadership – forms the crux of this book. As the development of authentic leadership requires different considerations to what is mostly espoused in the field of leadership development, considerations and criteria for AL development and AL programmes are discussed.
- Part III – Well-known examples of leaders through the lens of AL – even though AL programmes have not really been available before, such leadership can be developed by means of introspection and commitment to further development during a lifetime of life experiences and work episodes.

by: Kathy
The subject of authentic leadership has gained interest in recent years around the globe, particularly in relation to the need for more ethical leadership. This book addresses the crucial question of how to develop such leadership. It combines research, which evaluated a coaching programme for developing authentic leadership, with theoretical principles and practical guidelines into a must-read for leaders and coaches. Of immense value are the stories of how different leaders have developed their authenticity - and what this has meant to them and their teams in a tangible sense.
