Readings on Power and Leadership in Organizations provides students with a carefully curated selection of readings and activities that explore questions surrounding leadership including: What makes someone a good leader? Is our perception of what leadership is connected to our social, economic, and governmental structures? Is there such a thing as a "universal" good leader?
Opening chapters feature readings that define leadership, explore how culture plays a role in perceptions of leadership, and introduce theories related to leadership. Students examine the relationship between leadership and power and learn about the importance of communication and decision-making in effective leadership. Additional chapters cover leading teams versus individuals, managing errors, ethics, and behavior.
Designed to guide students through a leadership self-discovery journey, Readings on Power and Leadership in Organizations is an ideal supplementary text for courses and programs in business and leadership.
