Hubristic Leadership

Autor Eugene Sadler-Smith
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 ian 2019
Investigating the societal, economic, financial and reputational costs of hubristic leadership, with insights into the characteristics and causes of this phenomenon, and recommended safeguards to avoid hubris from happening in the first place.
As research into hubristic leadership becomes increasingly popular following recent political developments, the book adopts an inter-disciplinary approach to investigating this form of leadership. Outlining what causes hubristic leadership in the first place, the author looks at how it’s potentially destructive consequences can be anticipated and avoided through an informed stance of moderation, critical analysis and reflexivity.
Examples are drawn from business and politics including the Lehmann Brothers, BP and Deepwater Horizon, Blair and Bush in the Iraq Invasion, NASA, and Donald Trump.
Ideal reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students in business and management, leadership, and organizational behaviour.

Recenzii

An elegant, scholarly and absolutely timely analysis of the kinds of dangerous people who want to be leaders, but never should be allowed to be.  Read it, weep with despair for the state of international politics, and some big business—and understand it better.
This book offers numerous provocative ideas about what we can do to deal with hubristic leadership.  I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Sadler-Smith provides an incisive and thorough analysis of hubristic leadership making this book ideal as a primary or secondary text for courses focusing on the fundamentals of leadership.
An essential source covering a wide range of approaches from organisational to biological. Hubristic Leadership fills an important gap in the literature.

Descriere

The 2008 financial crash, the war in Iraq and the Trump Administration are just some of the examples Eugene Sadler-Smith uses to bring hubristic leadership and all its pitfalls to life in this groundbreaking new text. Using critical analysis and reflective anecdotes, this book explores the characteristics and impacts of hubristic leadership and how these might be anticipated, mitigated and allayed.
