A person in a leadership position frequently navigates through challenging environments and crisis situations. COVID-19's fast global expansion has quickly surpassed the scale and breadth of other recent epidemics, and people are naturally inclined to look to leaders for direction while seeking authority and certainty. The importance of competent, calm, and trustworthy leadership is greater than ever during unpredictable and turbulent times as leadership effectiveness can be best judged in crisis environments. Global Leadership Perspectives on Industry, Society, and Government in an Era of Uncertainty examines how leaders from industry, society, and government respond to and manage crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic in a variety of cultural and national contexts. This book is poised to address contemporary leadership issues as well as the fundamental issues such as its definition, evolution of leadership theories, its distinction from management, and implications for gender, culture, and different fields of knowledge. Covering topics such as employee retention, leadership skills, and women entrepreneurs, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for leaders, managers, executives, investors, economic analysts, policymakers, human resource managers, entrepreneurs, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
