Leading with Aesthetics: The Transformational Leadership of Charles
M. Vest at MIT examines the role of aesthetics, design, and
architecture in organizational transformation and leadership,
particularly in the context of academic institutions. Leadership
has been thus far predominantly examined from the perspective of
function (performance) and position in the organizational structure
(such as a CEO or a president). Relatively little work has been
done in studying leadership of academic institutions, let alone
from the perspective of aesthetics, both of which this book aims to
rectify. Although aesthetic dimension is important in any
organizational context, it is particularly important for academic
institutions. Leading with aesthetics would empower leaders in any
organizational setting. Daas examines the aesthetic dimension of
transformational leadership through an eclectic blend of lenses
drawn from the fields of architecture, political science,
organizational aesthetics, and organizational psychoanalysis. A
detailed case study of the leadership of Charles Marstiller Vest
(1941-2013), who served as the president of Massachusetts Institute
of Technology for fourteen years between 1990 and 2004, illustrates
the importance of the aesthetic dimension in leadership and
organizational change.
