商品簡介
Unfortunately leadership does not have a one-size-fits-all definition. We all have our own ideas as to what makes a good leader and the types of challenges that will be faced. There is currently no book in the market that deals with modern leadership challengers and simultaneously combines a description of leadership and its practical application in diverse environments. In this book, Nicholas Harkiolakis will attempt to integrate the various theoretical perspectives into a unified model that can be understood by both the academic and the practitioner (existing and future leaders). This understanding is necessary to effectively treat and apply leadership to the challenging settings of today's operational environments; virtual, distributed, multicultural, etc. Some of the key topics covered are: · Leadership through the Ages · The Characteristics of Leadership · Modern Perspectives · An Integrated Leadership Framework · The Application of Leadership · The 21st Century Leadership Methods The author bridges a gap by combining a theoretical understanding of the leadership phenomenon with its practical application in modern organizational settings.
