Leaders and managers are rightly tasked to take their organizations
and communities to a desired future. They are expected to be
forward looking with compelling vision statements. As a result,
they are often too busy in the present managing the future to be
bothered with the past. Yet it is organizational histories that
provide the contexts and clues for the future. History and
Leadership: The Nature and Role of the Past in Navigating the
Future demonstrates that intentional historical perspective-taking
provides a sort-of wisdom for doing business in the present and
future and equips leaders to leverage the past to help their
organizations thrive. This book appeals to several audiences. It
will serve as a supplementary text for undergraduate and graduate
students in both the humanities and leadership studies. The book
also appeals to practicing leaders and managers who wish to develop
their emotional, cultural, and social intelligence by exploring
perennial issues and lessons found in well-developed histories.
This book also serves as a stand-alone read for a range of
professionals who want a more recreational and non-traditional read
on history and leadership. The book cultivates an appreciation for
history and equips readers to be connoisseurs of history for the
betterment of themselves and society.
