Emerging complexities have arisen regarding leadership, leadership studies and leadership development. It is widely recognised that contemporary conditions demand new styles of organizational leadership. Changing environmental conditions including globalisation, climate change, increased market volatility, and shifts in the balance of power in the global political economy suggest the need for more creative, interactive and longer-term strategic leadership. In order to address and react to these shifts in understanding, one must go back to the essential questions: what is it that leaders actually do, or should do, and what can leadership achieve? This Major Work on leadership development and practice engages these debates and issues by drawing together some of the most important and influential research from the related domains of leadership practice and leadership development. The first volume opens with a newly-written introduction, which explains the rationale for the Major Work, addresses the key questions set out above and outlines its structure, providing the reader with a clear, concise roadmap for all four volumes.
