About the work
Leadership moves people. It touches everyone - leaders and leaders alike.
The revised and expanded new edition of this standard work presents leadership theory in its impressive diversity in an updated form, classifies it as usual and points the way for research and practice.
Classic positions continue to find their place, but special emphasis has been placed on updates and expansions. For example, leadership theories, leadership instruments and leadership controlling have been expanded, as have the process perspectives of leadership. Developments in neuroscience and leadership, leadership presence and leadership and art have been newly included. For the first time, attention is paid to the dynamics of the real decision-making behaviour of team leaders, including optimisation measures. Sections on leadership ethics have been rewritten.
This and more makes the third edition a unique examination of all relevant but often neglected approaches to leadership - well-founded, consistent and empirically proven.
