About this book
With 13 contributors, and edited by Dr. Kerrie Fleming and Roger Delves, Inspiring Leadership showcases the best of leadership development practice and the most effective leadership styles that have evolved in recent years or are currently gaining attention. Enhanced by a perspective and vision of the types of leaders and leadership skills that will be needed to meet future global demand, the book has three distinctive characteristics: · it will help leaders to translate the latest thinking and offers a simple way of applying this to their current role;
· it offers leaders a means by which to develop themselves and their teams, while assessing how their organization may need to evolve in the changing business environment around them; and
· it offers a diverse view of leadership perspectives, from which readers can choose in order to enhance their own leadership style and practice. By mapping out the context of the past, present and future of leadership, including a focus on values, Inspiring Leadership looks at developing authenticity and using emotional intelligence to better cultivate a high level of self-awareness in every leader. The book offers invaluable insights on how best to 'practise' leadership, using the techniques and leadership perspectives that are most commonly used in business school interventions around the world.
