The Existential Leader: An Authentic Leader For Our Uncertain Times
invites us to reconsider our preconceptions about leadership,
introducing a new model more in line with our uncertain times:
existential leadership. Monica Hanaway presents an illuminating
overview of existential thinking and describes how an understanding
of philosophy can improve leadership, drawing on existing
leadership theories to show how this new model is more fitting for
the challenges of today. The approach is primarily philosophical,
rather than systemic or behavioural. It invites us to re-examine
what we think about leaders, whether we really need leaders at all,
and, if so, which existential concerns leaders must address. The
book offers an introduction to the development of existential
thinking and main concerns, including meaningfulness, anxiety,
loneliness, freedom, choice and responsibility, authenticity, and
values and beliefs. These are explored in the leadership context,
with practical approaches for using these in everyday leadership
dilemmas. Unique and accessible, The Existential Leader paves a way
for modern leadership perfectly suited to the challenging times we
live in. Innovative, theoretical and applicable to our changing
world landscape, this book will appeal to coaches, HR and L&D
professionals, executives, business consultants, and current and
future leaders. It will also be of interest to academics and
students of coaching psychology, applied philosophy and psychology.
