Thinking Differently about Leadership asks why and how we have come
to understand leadership in the way we now do, and the consequences
which arise from these understandings. Its critical interrogation
of Classical Greek, Medieval and modern social scientific ideas
reveals that troubling assumptions and problematic expectations are
key features of leadership theorizing both in the past and today.
By tracing developments in leadership thought over time, this book
reveals the influence of ideas from the past on current thinking,
inviting reflection on what we now seek from leaders and followers.
Its unique, multi-faceted analysis identifies non-scientific
factors which have profoundly influenced the development of
leadership science in the modern era. Arguing that conventional
understandings of leadership today are deeply problematic, the book
examines why we ought to think differently about leadership and
offers an approach for so doing. The book offers a framework for
leadership theory-building which readers can use to apply to their
own context, making it an ideal resource for critical management
and leadership scholars as well as students and practitioners who
will value its novel focus and perspective.
