Abstract:
This essential guide written by a team of international experts takes a truly global approach, and has been revised and expanded to improve accessibility to complex theory and add cutting-edge content. The third edition includes three new chapters covering: how leadership shapes the spaces we live and work in, leadership during crisis, and populism and conspiracy theories in leadership. The book also includes a range of new case studies and an updated 'Leadership on Screen' feature that looks at examples of leadership in film and TV, including Parasite and Peaky Blinders. This comprehensive yet engaging text is suitable for leadership students at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.
