Recenzii
'Even though popular images of power center on a solitary heroic figure at the top, the reality of power at the top is increasingly different. Power is often shared among a small group of co-leaders (think CEO-COO, co-CEOs, CEO-Chairman, etc). Alvarez and Svejenova are pioneers in tackling this understudied leadership phenomenon. This book helps us understand shared leadership at the top both theoretically and practically. It is a must read for scholars interested in leadership and for practitioners who understand the necessity and difficulty of creating effective shared leadership.' Nitin Nohria, Harvard Business School
'The authors highlight the importance of roles and integration as key elements of organisational governance. They reveal the central roles of rules, politics and trust as central to strategic decision making amongst the corporate elite. Full of well-researched cases and examples, this book stands with the pioneering books of organisation and contingency theories upon whose inspiration it draws. A must read for those interested in governance, power and strategic decision making.' David C. Wilson, Professor of Strategy and Organisation, University of Warwick Business School
'Alvarez and Svejenova take on and debunk one of the oldest beliefs in business - that there can be only one chief. More often than not, innovations in business happen between people, not within them; so why not apply that thinking to the top? Sharing Executive Power is a great read for anyone looking to create more value from their leadership structure.' Jerry A. Greenberg and J. Stuart Moore, Co-Chief Executive Officers, Co-Chairmen of Sapient Corp.
'… worth reading for both organizational theorists and practitioners in the field. The theoretical arguments are introduced and developed with high level academic rigour. At the same time, several accounts of the 'real world' are provided. The originality of the approach is preserved and constantly substantiated with both practical and theoretical support.' Journal of Management and Governance
