Leadership is demanding and challenging. How do leaders cope? How
do they remain fit and strong, and thrive? The authors of
Leadership Resilience, a business school academic and a police
officer, suggest that many challenges faced by leaders are similar
to the challenges experienced by police officers. The isolation;
the pressure not to show personal emotions; the expectation that
they will deal effectively with confused, frustrated and angry
people; and that they can deal with delivering bad news; all
contribute to the pressures bearing on leaders and police officers
everywhere. The authors argue that these challenges are more
pronounced in policing and so more readily identifiable than in
other leadership situations. They explore challenges experienced by
police officers, look at how they cope with them, and draw lessons
for those undertaking leadership roles more generally. Leadership
Resilience provides accounts from police officers, in their own
words, of difficult experiences they encounter. They describe their
feelings about what was important and how they coped with it. Each
account is followed by an analysis highlighting what is discussed,
and not discussed, in the accounts and identifying lessons that can
be drawn by leaders in other situations. All is presented so that
it is relevant to different cultures demanding different styles of
leadership. Analysis of the engaging experiences featured will help
leaders struggling with the gap between leadership education and
capability and the demands made of them to survive and thrive,
while maintaining their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual
health.
