Contemporary Issues in Leadership

Leadership—and leadership studies—are in flux. The fifth edition of this popular anthology continues its interdisciplinary approach to the topic of leadership. The new edition offers readings divided into four sections, respectively, on the human dimensions of leadership, on defining leadership values, on lessons from great leaders of the past, and the dilemmas and paradoxes of good leadership. Tapping the wisdom of 4 classic articles and 17 new readings, William Rosenbach and Robert Taylor present a renewed framework for understanding leaders and leadership from a contemporary perspective.
