Leadership Across Boundaries: A Passage to Aporia theorizes on
leadership in an unprecedented manner by stepping outside of
conventional leadership theory and importing into leadership
studies the implications of certain innovations in the social
sciences, such as pluralism, complexity theory, and the dialogical
turn, to change the way scholars discuss and study leadership.
Leadership Across Boundaries anchors theoretical passages that
generate a new way of imagining what it means to lead and follow
with concrete examples about Martin Luther, the Common Law,
dialogue as a practice, a painting by Diego Velazquez, synchronized
fireflies, and the strange career of Francis of Assisi. This book
acknowledges the limitations of existing leadership research as
being too leader-centric, simplistic, static, and in many cases
oblivious to the power of images to shape our understanding. To
rectify these limitations, Leadership Across Boundaries examines
alternative images of leadership grounded in concrete examples that
present leadership in an unprecedented light. The book includes a
discussion of invigorating ideas of homeward leadership (looking
backward), extra-ordinary leadership (going forward), and what will
be defined as the perennial need for aikido politics. An
interdisciplinary text, Leadership Across Boundaries: A Passage to
Aporia will appeal not only to scholars, instructors, and students
of leadership, but also to those in the many fields in which
leadership theory applies, such as history, economics, sociology,
archetypal psychology, the law, political philosophy, applied
mathematics, and the martial arts.
