The rapid pace of technological change and globalization of
products, competition and services have conspired to place a new
premium on innovation for firms across the world. Although many
variables influence creativity and innovation, the effective
leadership of creative teams has proved especially important. This
timely Handbook presents the state of the art for what leaders must
do to lead creative teams and how they should do it. Handbook of
Research on Leadership and Creativity is divided into three major
sections. The first section on leadership functions identifies key
activities that must be executed by leaders if creative efforts are
to prove successful. The next section explains creative leadership
using available theoretical models, examining the effects of leader
behaviors on follower creativity. The final section investigates
specific domains where organizations seek creativity. It covers the
creative domains of research and development as well as military
and academia, which have not traditionally been viewed as domains
where creative leadership is critical. This comprehensive Handbook
makes a significant contribution to the literature on creativity
and innovation and will be welcomed as an accessible yet
authoritative text by students, teachers and researchers alike.
