This book provides a critical examination of leadership and leadership development, offering new insights and contemporary approaches that reflect the changing needs of organisations and societies.



Leadership as a practice, and the development of leaders, has evolved significantly in recent decades, influenced by rapid changes in the business landscape, technology, social norms, and global challenges. The unprecedented disruptions brought about by crises, the increased awareness around diversity, equity, and inclusion, and the rise of new organisational models have all necessitated a rethinking of traditional leadership frameworks. At the same time, the focus on leadership development has shifted, with a greater emphasis on developing skills that foster adaptability, inclusivity, sustainability, and resilience.

In response to these shifts, this book provides a critical examination of leadership and leadership development, offering new insights and contemporary approaches that reflect the changing needs of organisations and societies. With contributions from leading scholars and practitioners across diverse fields, the 12 chapters in this edited volume present a rich blend of theoretical, empirical, and reflective research. It provides fresh perspectives on leadership development by exploring themes such as diversity and inclusion, sustainability, innovation, and resilience.

Finding the right leadership for any kind of enterprise is always a balance of appointing exceptional leaders, developing the people you have and linking them into the most productive teams. Most books deal with just one of these, but here you will find insights into all three aspects of enterprise leadership. Its not a book of wish-fulfilling spells to solve all leadership problems; but for experts and scholars in leadership development, this is an essential guide to current knowledge and coming challenges. Professor Jonathan Gosling, Emeritus Professor of Leadership, University of Exeter, and Director, Pelumbra Ltd.

Leadership is the missing link in any sub optimal performance, be it in business, family, at work or social dealings. This book brings this to the fore and recommends the contextualisation of leadership development by having the right mix of academic rigour and real-life reality. I recommend this book for everyone as it widens our horizon on how leadership is the missing link in our life performance. Professor Chimezie Anyakora, Chief Executive Officer, Bloom Public Health.

It matters not whether you're an emerging leader or a seasoned executive, we all could do with guidance that points out methodologies to inspire, influence, and drive meaningful change.
