Applied Leadership

A Synthesis of Theory and Practice

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

'Applied Leadership: A Synthesis of Theory & Practice' is a holistic view of leadership. It highlights myths and misperceptions existing about leadership and their negative impact on the practical application. The book discusses existing theories of leadership, analyzes strengths of individual theories, and their weaknesses in providing a holistic view of leadership, leading to a need for a holistic approach to leadership. The book builds up a holistic model and plugs in the existing theories to develop a bigger picture. The cardinals of the holistic model are then discussed as individual chapters from theoretical as well as practical aspects of leadership. The discussion of individual cardinals is finally translated into an applied leadership model that presents a comprehensive view of leadership, bridges the theory-practice gap and can be used as a framework for researchers and practitioners of leadership.
