Today we often look to our leaders in business, government, or the
social sector, to make effective decisions in a complex world.
Whether they are asked what steps to take to improve
competitiveness in a global economy or to make tough ethical
choices, well-trained leaders are critical to organizational
effectiveness. Although we know much about leadership development
for individuals after they take their first job, we know relatively
little about their earlier experiences that contributed to their
interest in leadership or subsequent effectiveness as leaders. This
volume brings together researchers who explore leadership at
different points before individuals enter the workforce and asks
important questions surrounding definitions of leadership behavior,
necessary leader skills and age-related leader tasks, factors
contributing to development of leader identity, and ways to improve
the process of leader development. With contributions from
well-known leadership researchers such as Robert Sternberg, Howard
Gardner, Bruce Avolio, and Susan Komives, the volume shows research
evidence for factors such as early childhood and youth experiences
on leadership development, which have implications for the way we
understand and train leadership in today's organizations.
