Action leadership is a creative, innovative, collaborative and
self-developed way to lead. It eschews the hierarchical structure
usually associated with leadership and is based instead on the
democratic values of freedom, equality, inclusion and
self-realization. It take responsibility for, not control over,
people through networking and orchestrating human energy towards a
holistic outcome that benefits the common interest. Action leaders
are passionate people who abide by the motto that "Learning does
not mean to fill a barrel but rather to ignite a flame" in others.
And in this time of rapid economic, political, technological,
social and ecological changes, action leadership and action leaders
are precisely what's needed to improve how people and organizations
engage constructively to address the myriad complex issues
challenging society at all levels. Action Leadership: Towards a
Participatory Paradigm explains and illustrates how action
leadership can be developed through participatory action learning
and action research (PALAR). It addresses real-life issues by
people who choose to work collaboratively towards shared goals
while developing their learning, insights, knowledge, people skills
and personal relationships through involvement in a PALAR project.
The book provides a conceptual framework for action leadership and
for the integrative, practical theory of PALAR; and examples of
applications in higher education, management education for
organization development, and community development. Readers are
encouraged to adopt, adapt and further develop the evolving
concepts of action leadership and PALAR in a participatory paradigm
of learning, research and development.
