Responsible Leadership: Realism and Romanticism de Steve Kempster

Responsible Leadership: Realism and Romanticism: Routledge Studies in Leadership Research

Editat de Steve Kempster, Brigid Carroll
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2021
It is time for the development of a new kind of business leadership. Global needs call for a revision of market capitalism and a move towards moral capitalism; a move "from value to values, from shareholders to stakeholders, and from balance sheets to balanced development" (Kofi Annan).
With the challenge of this transition in mind, this book argues that it is time for a new understanding of leadership, a new romanticism which looks behind the overvalued, heroic leadership notion. The editors explore a romanticized rhetoric and situate it within current discourses of authentic, distributed and ethical leadership, where societal, economic and environmental challenges require us to take a collective lead towards doing good and growing well.
Exploring this dichotomy of romantic ideal and essential requirement, this book combines the insights of leading academics and with those of practitioners in the field. Thought-provoking and engaging it will challenge both thinking and practice, and is essential reading for all those operating or researching in the field of leadership, particularly those who realize the overwhelming challenges of sustainability, and corporate social responsibility which the world now faces.

Recenzii

'This book offers a seminal contribution to demystify responsible leadership. It succeeds in taking the reader on a colourful journey of discovery, allowing one to gain insights from a rich pallet of diverse views and more importantly leaves one with the realisation that the responsible leadership journey has only started. If you want to participate on this journey, I suggest you make this book your starting point.' - Derick de Jongh, Professor, University of Pretoria, South Africa
'From enticing start to compelling finish, this is a book of broad and profound intellectual power. The authors - all people who know what they are talking about - inspire us with romantic hope and caution us with sceptical realism. In between, they allow space for careful, thoughtful understanding of responsibility in contemporary leadership. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone concerned with the predicaments of modern organising, activism and governance.' - Jonathan Gosling, Emeritus Professor, University of Exeter, UK
'The action learning community and readership of this journal may feel validated and included through many of the chapters of the book and their messages concerning the collective nature of leadership, challenges of embracing the requirements of multiple stakeholders, setting ethical agendas, the importance of developing human capacity and the need to build trust. Other fundamentals of responsible leadership are about the need for reflection and critical thinking. For those interested in understanding responsible leadership and contention around it, this book is a must read.' - Dr Taposh Roy, Action Learning: Research and Practice

Descriere

This book argues that it is time for a new understanding of leadership, which looks behind the overvalued, heroic leadership notion towards a new ideal, requiring us to collectively take the lead in moving towards doing good and growing well.
