Book SynopsisThis book addresses the different kinds of businesses launched by entrepreneurs and explains why their differences are so critical for our understanding of entrepreneurship. While entrepreneurs create a wide variety of businesses, overwhelming emphasis has been placed on explosive growth firms such as Facebook, Google, Amazon, Uber and Airbnb. Although important, these businesses represent less than one percent of start-ups. The book distinguishes four types of new ventures: survival, lifestyle, managed growth and aggressive growth. Underlying characteristics of each type are investigated, together with the resources, skills and capabilities necessary for their success. Issues that arise based on this typology are explored, including reasons why ventures of one type rarely change to become another, and how entrepreneurs determine which they should pursue. In addition, the authors introduce the 'portfolio' concept, where the need to develop a balanced mix of venture types is emphasized. The principal audiences for What Do Entrepreneurs Create? include entrepreneurship educators, scholarly researchers, public policy developers, economic development professionals, and community organizations striving to foster entrepreneurial activity.Trade Review'What do entrepreneurs create? Prominent, well-known authors Michael H. Morris and Donald F. Kuratko answer this question in their newest fascinating book. They emphasize that a venture is organic and that it is a living, breathing thing with a purpose and mission. Rather than view venture creation is an end, they explain the phenomenon as a journey. A very refreshing read indeed! Hats off to the authors.' --Leo P Dana, Montpellier Business School, France'This important book delivers what everyone wants to know - how to be entrepreneurial and all of the vast ways that entrepreneurship is manifested. The book is not only full of practical and essential lessons from two of the most prominent world class experts, but it is also rife with rare gems and insights that will guide anyone interested in learning about entrepreneurs. The passion, knowledge and experience that these authors bring jumps out on every page.' --David Audretsch, Indiana University, USTable of ContentsContents: Preface 1.

Book SynopsisCareer Dynamics in a Global World takes on a major question in the global research and practice of career development and adopts a distinctive approach in response. The authors address the question of how and to what extent a predominant influence of Western thinking about careers interferes with our understanding of careers in other parts of the world. The approach involves identifying career topics for further exploration, recruiting teams of Indian and Western scholars on each topic to share their insights, and laying out those insights to help both careers researchers and practitioners see their significance. As a result, in this remarkable collaboration the reader is invited to compare views on self-awareness and careers from traditional Indian Ayurvedic and alternative Western perspectives, alongside contrasting Indian and Western reports on women stepping off their career ladders, the motivation of social entrepreneurs, the careers of IT workers, MBA holders and management scholars and other topics. Career and cross-cultural researchers and career and HR practitioners will be fascinated by the comparative analysis of career dynamics.Trade Review'Career Dynamics in a Global World takes on the difficult, but invaluable, task of unpacking the complex topic of career development from both Western and South Asian perspectives. For anyone who is passionate about building a more human-centred future world of work, this book is a vital must-read in helping to understand individual and cultural-drivers with regards to career development in a connected and globalised world.' --Leena Nair, Chief HR Officer, Unilever, UK'Insight into contemporary careers in a global world is likely to take a giant leap forward with the publication of this timely book. The editors have done a masterful job assembling pairs of fascinating chapters that peer deeply into critical topics from Western and Indian perspectives.' --Jeffrey H. Greenhaus, Drexel University, US'This book fills an important gap in our cross-cultural understanding of the psychology of careers. The interesting pairing of chapters from Western and South Asian (Indian) cultural perspectives, and mix of etic and emic studies of careers in the 21st century is a timely reminder that careers are constantly being constructed by individuals, societies and the times we live in!' --Kim Yin Chan, Nanyang Business School, SingaporeTable of ContentsContents: 1 Introduction to Career Dynamics in a Global World 1 Premarajan Raman Kadiyil, Anneleen Forrier and Michael B.

Book SynopsisWhat are the responsibilities of businesses and business leaders to society? Moreover, do the responsibilities of business change when there are social problems or problems with other institutions? Immigration, Brexit, the election of Donald Trump, and the emergence of populism and nationalism on both sides of the Atlantic raise some ethical challenges for business leaders. The chapters in this book tackle several aspects of these questions with chapters on business and politics, the environmental responsibilities of business, the social and political impact of technology, immigration, the impact of social turmoil on organizational leadership, and broader questions of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), leadership, and governance in times of social turmoil. Academics and students who study CSR as well as those who study business ethics, business and society, or business and government are not the only readers who will find insight in Ethical Business Leadership in Troubling Times. Practitioners who oversee corporate CSR programs, compliance officers, and social and political philosophers and ethicists will benefit from these explorations into the complexities of business ethics.

Book SynopsisMost leadership research has been undertaken in corporate contexts and little attention has been given to leadership development in entrepreneurial and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This book argues that the study of entrepreneurs as leaders is a gap in both the leadership and the entrepreneurship literatures. The impact of leaders is a crucial factor in the success or failure of smaller entrepreneurial firms and has implications for our understanding of new venture viability and growth.Featuring conceptual and empirical chapters from a wide range of cultures and entrepreneurship and leadership ecosystems, this Research Handbook is the first of its kind to present a systematic overview of the entrepreneurial leadership field, providing a state-of-the-art perspective and highlighting unanswered questions and opportunities for further research. It consolidates existing theory development, stimulates new conceptual thinking and includes path-breaking empirical explorations.With its international perspective illustrating the practice of entrepreneurial leadership in a wide range of organizational contexts, the Research Handbook on Entrepreneurship and Leadership offers an essential reference to students and researchers in entrepreneurship and leadership alike.Contributors: A.

Book SynopsisThis cutting-edge Research Handbook brings together international scholars to provide a comprehensive overview of motivation within and beyond the field of public administration. Discussing the implications of contemporary research for theory and practice, it offers suggestions for the development of future research in the field. Contributions offer cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary insights into the theories that underpin motivation research and how motivation drives decisions across public, nonprofit, and private sector settings, highlighting key sector differences that influence decision-making. Covering a wide range of core motivational topics and subfields relevant to the study of public and nonprofit administration, chapters emphasize the key motivational factors that affect employee recruitment, selection, and retention and how they affect – and are affected by – employee behavior. Providing a wide-ranging coverage of the field, this Research Handbook is critical reading for scholars, researchers, and upper-level students of public administration and policy. It will also benefit practitioners in public and nonprofit organizations in need of a deeper understanding of the links between motivation and employee behavior.Trade Review‘This book is a breath of fresh air illuminating the theory and practice of motivating, cultivating, and caring for the public sector workforce at all levels of government. It is a must-read for scholars, practitioners, and students interested in building and sustaining a well-run public service.’ -- Rosemary O’Leary, University of Kansas, US‘Stazyk and Davis have assembled an all-star cast of public sector motivation researchers, from rising stars to revered veterans. This compendium of cutting-edged knowledge will surely become the bible for public sector motivation researchers.’ -- Leisha DeHart-Davis, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, US‘This comprehensive reader provides an inclusive and sweeping examination of the issues on the topic of motivation in public administration. It takes a broad view of motivation, with some coverage of public service motivation (PSM), but the book also addresses other critical topics surrounding and affecting employee motivation that are often overlooked, including non-monetary compensation, unionization, public pensions, job designs and organizational justice. The coverage of both theoretical and applied applications, and the prominent scholars contributing to the reader make it a significant contribution to the literature addressing motivational issues in public administration. It goes beyond the standard fare and is a must read for those interested in the research and practice of motivation in the field.’ -- Norma M. Riccucci, Rutgers University, US‘Every once in a while, an edited collection reframes and revitalizes the state of the art! Edmund C. Stazyk and Randall S. Davis have edited such a masterful collection by bringing together leading international scholars on public and nonprofit employee motivation, who provide an expansive and in-depth account of motivation theory, public sector context, key human resource management processes, and employee behavior.’ -- Sanjay K.

Book SynopsisHow to Manage Student Consulting Projects describes the key principles and tools needed by project advisors to manage student consulting projects in an academic setting. The authors highlight different approaches for managing student consulting teams, including an innovative model in which graduate students manage undergraduates. This model of experiential learning suggests that project advisors should include reflection of learning as a key outcome for any student consulting project. The book also emphasizes the importance of evaluating both team and individual performance in a project's overall success, and data are shown on the positive impact that student teams have had on clients. In addition to offering strategies that project advisors can use to improve project performance, the book provides information for program administrators and deans, as well as project managers in non-academic settings, to help in the development and running of project-based learning.Trade Review‘When designed and managed well, students consulting projects can lay and reify some of the strongest knowledge and professional foundations for our students. This book shows us how.’ -- Christina Kyprianou, Academy of Management Learning & Education'I've seen firsthand how effectively managing student consulting projects can provide a valuable experience for students and a high impact service for clients. As a former dean and provost at Babson, I witnessed the authors of this book take the student consulting program to new heights and transform it into one of the most meaningful experiential learning opportunities you will find anywhere. You will want to learn from them and adopt their principles in your own program.' --Dennis Hanno, President, Wheaton College, US>'The Boston Red Sox organization has benefited greatly from the work of the student consulting teams from Babson College for over 6 years. It is clear that the program at Babson provides the students with the ability to work closely with our organization while also making relevant, actionable recommendations. --Jason Lumsden, Director of IT, Boston Red Sox'The Babson student consulting teams were a valuable resource to me when I was Governor of New Hampshire. The teams brought an independent and innovative perspective to a number of state agencies. Prof. Joe Weintraub, George Lee and Arline MacCormack have written an important book that I highly recommend to faculty and institutions in higher education who want to give real-world experiences to students while providing meaningful advice to organizations from all sectors of the economy.' --The Honorable Craig R.

Book Synopsis'With their fascinating synthesis of two fields of study, leadership and sexuality, editors James Beggan and Scott Allison provide a forum for scholars to investigate two concepts that have long shaped human behavior and captured both academic interest and the curiosity of the general public. In addition to its appeal to academics, this cross-disciplinary book will interest anyone who has ever had a boss, been on a date, or contemplated an office romance.' -Robert Giacalone, John Carroll University, US Although both leadership and sexuality are important and heavily researched topics, there is little work that addresses the interaction of the two areas. Leadership and Sexuality: Power, Principles, and Processes is a scholarly synthesis of leadership principles with issues related to sexuality and sexual policy-making. The authors' multi-disciplinary analysis of the topic examines sexuality in the context of many different kinds of leadership, exploring both the good and the bad aspects of leadership and sexuality. These integrated topics are examined through three broad areas of study. The first involves individuals who become leaders in sexual domains by advancing new views of human sexuality. The second involves problems that leaders of businesses and other institutions must address as a result of issues related to human sexuality, including sexual harassment and sexually-based discrimination in the workplace. The third area involves understanding how being a leader influences sexual desire and sexual attraction, and may impact the course of workplace romance and the expression of sexuality. Written to be accessible to both laypeople and scholars, this book will appeal to academics and scientists interested in human sexuality as well as many related disciplines, including psychology, sociology, leadership studies, heroism science, political science, religion, and economics.

Turley Trade Review'The chapters in this excellent edited volume illuminate what is often overlooked: leadership's sexual side. From the leaders of the sexual change and transformation movements, to those who inflict their heternormative biases on others, to the inappropriate, immoral, and illegal sexual missteps of so many leaders, there is much to be gained by examining, explicitly, the sexuality of leadership. Leaders and leadership are fascinating topics, but add a dash of sex, and they become all the more intriguing.' --Donelson R. Forsyth, University of Richmond, US'The interplay between sexuality and leadership is a provocative topic that people tend to give a wide berth to, like a gorilla in a room. Not surprisingly, Jim and Scott climb on the gorilla, and bring along some collaborators to show us what can happen when leaders shy away from confronting sexuality-based issues within the group, or misinterpret the sexual intent of a behavior, and draws on real-world events many of us would like to forget. Far from sensational, this volume gives us the opportunity to move past the skittishness and finally address sexuality as an influence on social behavior.' --Craig Parks, Washington State University, US'Beggan and Allison's edited book fills the void created by the neglect of scholarship on the links between sexuality and leadership. In this collection of chapters written by social scientists from several fields, authors explore multiple ways in which leadership and sexuality can be related, including, for example, some leaders' sexual abuse of others and the sexuality implications of social dancing. I can't think of an edited book on leadership with a more fascinating and unusual set of chapters.' --Alice Eagly, Northwestern University, USTable of ContentsContents: Introduction Sexuality in Leadership: A Long-neglected topic with vast implications for individuals and society James K.

Book SynopsisThis thoroughly revised and extended second edition of the groundbreaking Rethinking Leadership builds on Donna Ladkin's entirely new approach to understanding leadership as a lived experience rather than a checklist of traits or behaviors. Alongside selected expert contributors, the author makes complex ideas accessible by illustrating them with practical examples drawn from a broad experience of both academic leadership and management across a range of commercial, political and not-for-profit organizations. New chapters explore the lived experience of women leaders, how leaders might make responsible judgments, how power works within leadership relations, how business leadership differs from political leadership, and the need for leaders to be more 'human'. Featuring up-to-date examples of how its ideas can be applied, the book offers a way to engage with the complexity and unpredictability of leadership as a phenomenon, at a time when effective, wise leadership is needed more than ever. Leadership scholars and doctoral level students will benefit from this book's novel philosophical perspective on leadership theorizing. Its discussion of a variety of accessible case studies that illustrate key ideas will also prove useful to all postgraduate leadership students. Contributors: R.A. Gardiner, D. Ladkin, C. O'Neill, P. Salovaara, T. SwitzerTrade Review'I once met a man who had travelled halfway around the world with a small bag and one book: Rethinking Leadership. This is a book that takes you to new places in yourself and in the world. Key features of this latest edition include: a refined leadership model that emphasises context; current case studies and compelling contributions from leadership experts. Beautifully written in a warm, relatable way, with complex philosophies made accessible, you will rediscover the thrill of learning, reflecting and practicing leadership.' --Chellie Spiller, University of Waikato Management School, New Zealand'This book will be highly beneficial to any reader. Most notably, it provides an understanding of the philosophical foundation of ethics and morality in leadership to practitioners, who rarely have the time to dig into journals or papers that provide insights into that groundwork. The book fills this void as it covers the underpinning of ethical decision-making and thus helps a leader to confront and manage the 21st century's increasing challenges and disruptions.' --Roland Bardy, BardyConsult Management Training and former director at BASF SE, Germany'With many of us deeply disillusioned, asking do we need leadership at all and how have we got so captive of its corrupted forms, more than ever we need the rethinking posed in this book. Ladkin and her colleagues take us on a radically different journey around leadership, drawing on continental philosophy and especially phenomenology to ask deeper questions about what leadership is, why it matters, and how to imbue our understandings with less hype, more moral integrity and humanity.' --Amanda Sinclair, Melbourne Business School, AustraliaTable of ContentsContents: Preface 1.

Book SynopsisElgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.With contributions from global leading scholars, this Research Agenda offers an interdisciplinary collection of ideas investigating gender and leadership; where we are today and where we are going. Using critical perspectives, chapters challenge the way we think about gender and leadership by questioning the status quo. Providing cutting edge discussion from authors of diverse genders, races, ages, ethnicities, and religions, this book provides analysis of the key issues and methodologies in modern leadership research. Forward thinking, it examines current guidelines and provides insight towards an equitable and positive change in leadership.Leadership scholars and graduate students interested in business leadership as well as gender and management more broadly will find this not only an informative but an illuminating read.Trade Review‘Critical, timely, thoughtful! This entire project gracefully centers the nuances of gender, what it is and isn't, while artfully exploring leadership at its intersections. Each chapter intentionally disrupts the “story most often told” in leadership--research, development, and practice--and places concerted attention on identities, lived experiences, and perspectives about leadership that have historically not been prioritized. Sherylle J. Tan and Lisa DeFrank-Cole, alongside each chapter author, challenges readers to think beyond the current leadership milieu to imagine, better yet, demand what could be! I am excited for the impact this work will have on the understanding and practice of leadership!’ -- Natasha Turman, University of Michigan, US‘Once again Sherylle J. Tan and Lisa DeFrank-Cole have made an important contribution to the continuing conversation of gender and leadership. This edited collection pays particular attention to the context within which these discussions are being held, especially the changing conceptions of gender and the changing language around gender.

What sets the volume apart is the explicit focus on leadership that makes a difference. In the context of the current failures which are apparent in leadership at the highest levels globally, combined with the grand challenges facing nations globally, leaders who make a difference are even more important. This Handbook is an excellent point of departure in developing more responsible leadership and I highly recommend it to anyone with a research interest in the area, or to those charged with leadership development.' --David Collings, DCU Business School, Republic of Ireland'This thought-provoking book is a must-read primer for anyone considering studying, researching and practicing leadership in the global context.

They have done it across the levels, borders, and contexts, offering truly unique perspectives and guidelines for how to exercise responsible global leadership to build an inclusive society.' --Dana Minbaeva, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark'Lena Zander's Research Handbook of Global Leadership is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the increasing breadth and depth of the global leadership domain. The Handbook not only brings together an authoritative international author team, but also makes a compelling case for the differential role - and educational needs- of global leadership across team, organizational and cultural settings.

Book SynopsisThis book addresses the different kinds of businesses launched by entrepreneurs and explains why their differences are so critical for our understanding of entrepreneurship. While entrepreneurs create a wide variety of businesses, overwhelming emphasis has been placed on explosive growth firms such as Facebook, Google, Amazon, Uber and Airbnb. Although important, these businesses represent less than one percent of start-ups. The book distinguishes four types of new ventures: survival, lifestyle, managed growth and aggressive growth. Underlying characteristics of each type are investigated, together with the resources, skills and capabilities necessary for their success. Issues that arise based on this typology are explored, including reasons why ventures of one type rarely change to become another, and how entrepreneurs determine which they should pursue. In addition, the authors introduce the 'portfolio' concept, where the need to develop a balanced mix of venture types is emphasized. The principal audiences for What Do Entrepreneurs Create? include entrepreneurship educators, scholarly researchers, public policy developers, economic development professionals, and community organizations striving to foster entrepreneurial activity.Trade Review'What do entrepreneurs create? Prominent, well-known authors Michael H. Morris and Donald F. Kuratko answer this question in their newest fascinating book. They emphasize that a venture is organic and that it is a living, breathing thing with a purpose and mission. Rather than view venture creation is an end, they explain the phenomenon as a journey. A very refreshing read indeed! Hats off to the authors.' --Leo P Dana, Montpellier Business School, France'This important book delivers what everyone wants to know - how to be entrepreneurial and all of the vast ways that entrepreneurship is manifested. The book is not only full of practical and essential lessons from two of the most prominent world class experts, but it is also rife with rare gems and insights that will guide anyone interested in learning about entrepreneurs.

The authors also provide practical tools and actions that can assist any organization in improving its performance.This book is widely applicable to several fields, including financial strategy, culture change, human resource management, leadership roles, and organizational change. Both academics and business leaders will find it to be an illuminating and useful tool and reference. It has also proven to be a valuable resource in executive education programs.Trade Review‘[The authors] continue to shape how organizations succeed through leadership by integrating two critical concepts: navigating paradox and creating value.

Book SynopsisThis innovative book explores the universal and cultural foundations that underlie the dynamics of leadership. It asks key questions such as: why are we attracted to leaders? Why do we perceive certain leaders as charismatic? And why do some leaders who are perceived as charismatic during a certain period cease to be perceived as such in another period?Taking a unique evolutionary and cultural perspective, Micha Popper and Omri Castelnovo argue that the desire for leaders is inherent in the ‘evolutionary software’ of the human race. They provide an observation of the basic evolutionary foundations common to all animals before exploring elements that are unique to humans. The book considers acquired signals, universal and cultural signs of leadership and the phenomenon of charisma. Through the presentation of case studies and historical examples, the book demonstrates how followers create images of leadership and how evolutionary, psychological, and cultural aspects affect this process.Original and visionary in its approach, this book will be a valuable resource for scholars and students with a focus on business leadership, organizational behavior, and organizational psychology. Its use of both contemporary and historical case studies will also be beneficial for business managers and practitioners.Trade Review‘Charisma has always been a fascinating, but complex and elusive, construct. This analysis looks at both the evolutionary roots and social psychological processes underlying charisma. It provides an excellent understanding of the role of leader, follower, culture, and situation in establishing and maintaining the charismatic relationship. Scholarly, yet accessible, this is a must-read for anyone interested in charisma and charismatic leadership.’ -- Ronald E. Riggio, Claremont McKenna College, USTable of ContentsContents: 1.

Book SynopsisThe world cries out for ethical leaders. We expect the best, but we are often left profoundly disappointed. While leadership programs may feature ethics as part of their curriculum, the approach is often either simplistic or overly esoteric. This second edition addresses this scarcity of resources for training ethical leaders, providing a primer of several ethical frameworks accompanied by extended examples to help inform decision-making. It also addresses several leadership models that claim an ethical component. The new edition also includes new chapters on the ethics of care and toxic leadership, and new case studies for all chapters. By providing a consistent case analysis based on the Five Components of Leadership Model, readers benefit from a comprehensive approach to understanding ethical leadership.By using the Five Components of Leadership Model as a consistent point of reference, McManus, Ward, and Perry offer readers a variety of insights on ethical leadership. Conclusions include the importance of drawing from multiple ethical and leadership perspectives, moving away from exclusively leader-centric approaches to ethical leadership, the importance of asking questions to maximize self-awareness, and considering multiple points of view whenever addressing an ethical conundrum. To connect ‘ethical thinking’ and ‘ethical doing,’ the text uses classroom-friendly framing questions, timelines, visual models, summary tables, case studies, discussion questions, and recommended resources for additional study. After reading the book, students will benefit from a foundational understanding of theories and models of both ethics and leadership, as well as a concrete view of what these theories and models look like in practice. Professors will benefit by having all of these resources in one text, viewed through the lens of the Five Components of Leadership Model.Striving to be both comprehensive and approachable, this book is an excellent resource for upper-level students studying leadership, especially those who are new to philosophy or ethics. It is inclusive enough to serve as a primary text or as a supplement for a well-rounded ethics or leadership course.Table of ContentsContents Forewords xx Gama Perruci Ronald E.

Book SynopsisTo achieve racial equity in the workplace, we need to “name, frame and explain where it doesn't exist”. In Equality vs Equity: Tackling Issues of Race in the Workplace, Jenny Garret OBE helps the reader unpack the concept of racial equity and understand its importance in moving the dial up on inclusion, providing practical tips and language for the reader to act upon. Equality vs Equity: Tackling Issues of Race in the Workplace is essential reading for those who want to educate themselves and influence others to do the crucial complex work of achieving racial equity in the workplace.Trade ReviewAs usual, I learn from Jenny Garrett OBE every time we interact - this time via her latest fantastic book. Share this hugely practical book with friends, colleagues and others who either want to, or perhaps need to, become more ADEPT at living in a modern world where the global majority deserve far more. -- Dr. Suzanne Doyle-MorrisA book of bountiful evidence and facts on the state of play today in terms of racial equality in UK workplaces. Combining powerful personal experience presented dispassionately with figures and stories from across the recent past, Jenny offers a simple framework to get the reader – who is curious and interested to make a difference – to be part of the solution. A recommended read. -- Sarah Churchman OBEIf you read one book this year, make it this one! I have worked with Jenny on a number of occasions and always come away having learnt something and with a renewed vigour to make a difference. The fact [that] Jenny has put her unique storytelling abilities, borne of her lived and professional experience, into a book is just a gift to us all. In her introduction, Jenny talks about the African proverb ‘if you think you are too small to make a difference, you haven’t spent the night with a mosquito’. I couldn’t think of a stronger rally call for everyone to listen, learn and continue making the difference we can […]. -- Gareth HindI never feel that I’m doing enough to understand and tackle racial inequity[.] I don’t think it’s possible for me or any white person to ever be doing enough in this space. We can all learn more, listen more, hear more and take more action. If, like me, you want to play your part in tackling racial inequity then you really must read this book. It’s time to be the Empathetic changemaker the world needs you to be. It’s also time we started to accept the those who are Black, Asian, Brown, dual-heritage, indigenous to the global south, and or have been racialised as 'ethnic Minorities' are actually, as Jenny explains, the Global Majority. The clock is ticking for those of us white folks, we are the Global Minority, we need to learn fast, and make change happen even faster […] in the interest of everyone on our little planet. -- Andy WoodfieldIf we’re going to tackle racial injustice, then we need to address the fact that there is no such thing as a level playing field, and that the systems in which we live and work are themselves biased and discriminatory. Unless we tackle systemic inequity, there is little chance of achieving racial justice. This book is an important contribution to the field. It helps to increase our understanding and awareness of the systemic injustices at play in our workplaces, organisations and wider systems, and is also a call to all of us to do the work – with guidance on how to become a change-maker, as well as actionable steps we can all take towards greater equity. Most important of all, it stresses the importance of doing our own personal work to enable us to become instruments for change. -- Aboodi ShabiEquality vs Equity is a great work authored through the lived experience lens of specialist coach and trainer in the diversity arena, Jenny Garrett OBE. It is the game changer required to achieve a fresh new approach to challenge a 40-year-old problem. A must have (handbook full) of step-by-step advice for anyone with real commitment and interest in moving the Equality vs Equity Dial forward. -- Dr Yvonne Thompson CBEI am excited for people to read this book and use it to have moments to have self-reflection, but to also consider the role they play in shifting the dialogue we need to have around race and identity. This is a book for everyone and all. Well done Jenny for continuing this important conversation. -- Geoffrey O. Williams * Global VP of Diversity Equity & Inclusion, Burberry *The combination of Jenny’s honest lived experiences, well thought out research and clear explanations of complex topics make this a superbly compelling read. I recommend it for anyone who is afraid to have frank and honest conversations about race and wants to become a better ally. -- Janet Tidmarsh FCIPDJenny Garrett OBE has written a deeply personal, persuasive and highly educational book that will add to the rich, progressive discussion on racial equity and equality in the UK and more widely. This is definitely a must read! -- Peter AlleyneThis book is an extension of Jenny’s passion, honesty and ability to open your thought process and understanding of the world as it equates to racial equity. Its unapologetic, enlightening, yet practical. Jenny is voicing the conversations that your black and brown colleagues are having behind closed doors every day. If you are serious about understanding racial equity and challenging your own assumptions, this book is a ‘must’ read for anyone to actively engage in changing the narrative. -- Devi VirdiJenny Garrett has written a book that will soon become essential to anyone committed to developing and nurturing equitable workplaces and societies. Jenny draws on her experience in professional and personal spaces to inform how individuals, groups, and societies can become more aware of racial injustices, and she offers practice recommendations that can lead to greater inclusivity. I will be recommending this book to both colleagues and students. -- Professor Carole ElliottI met Jenny in the lockdown Zone, I mention this because it was a tipping point in the life and history for Black People. Notably we experienced the pandemic, the George Floyd murder, and a global community awakening and awareness. I think this book is timely, it is needed and instructional to make sense of the world we ae living in and to help navigate how we move from equality to equity. -- Karl George MBE Partner RSMKnotty, gordian issues require focused minds and bold actions to unravel them and mobilise change. Jenny Garrett’s new book does this honestly, vulnerably and directly to the entrenched issue of racism. With finesse and compelling assuredness, Jenny invites one and all to the table to explore the issue of race justice and to do so from the position of ‘the solution focused change agent’. She compels the reader to state, full throated and unapologetically, that ‘The Time for change is now. The agent of change is me.’ Get ready, dear reader, to be equipped, emboldened, and roused to be a powerful catalyst for change. -- Sharon AmesuThis is a much needed book for the current times we are living in. It is extremely well researched with academic references and lived experiences. It is easy to understand and implement as a handbook for every organisation or leader who aspires to be anti-racist. Jenny explains the difference between equality and equity in a way that makes so much sense, while offering practical tips and strategies to achieve true equity in the workplace. -- Wali Rahman * Diversity and Wellbeing Manager, Forestry Commission *I love Jenny’s positive approach. In Equality vs Equity Jenny acknowledges that real change is happening and explains why the shift from equality to equity is a vital part of the process if we are to keep up the momentum. I applaud Jenny’s positive mindset and progressive nature which make Equality vs Equity a must read for anyone who truly wants to understand how to move the dial forward. -- Gamiel YafaiThe conversation on racial inequality in the UK has progressed over the last few years but there is still much to do, learn and be implemented in order to make real progress on this agenda. Equality vs Equity: Tackling Issues of Race in the Workplace is the tool we've been waiting for that provides really helpful guidance and practical solutions [for] an ongoing issue and for organisations willing to make the change. I really do recommend reading this! -- Sharniya FerdinandJenny has achieved through this book a brilliant work of authentically narrating her lived experiences, intricately woven persuasive arguments about the urgency of amplifying equity and providing actionable strategies for anyone. Each chapter is steeped in history, research, anecdotes, and practical tools to kindle one’s desire for action. This is a must read for anyone interested in contributing to creating an equitable future in business and society at large. -- Dr Jummy OkoyaJenny has been challenging and shaping equality in the workplace for many years and as a result is a leader in this space. I have witnessed leaders change their internal processes as a result of her delivery and heard employees reflect on the impact they can have following her sessions. I know that this book will have a huge impact on every reader and will continue to shape ED&I globally. -- Sonia MeggieAn excellent book for anyone who wants to learn more and truly understand the importance of equity and how to create inclusion through the lens of race. Jenny shares many great examples of her own lived experiences which really help to bring the book to life. -- Asif SadiqThe narrative around racial equity has always been uncomfortable in the workplace; made even more difficult when you include the many layers of intersectionality. […] After nearly two decades of […] debate, this book will offer a fresh insight into racial bias and discrimination, and how leaders can become more comfortable and, more importantly, diligent change makers rather than […] complacent managers sitting on the side-lines expecting change. -- Sonia Brown MBE * Founder & Director, National Black Women’s Network (NBWN) and SistaTalk *In this book Jenny has provided an easy, informative, and engaging resource that bridges the gap between awareness for race equality, and the practical steps we must all take to ensure race equity. This is not just another book about race, this is a playbook that will shift gears for race equity, from conversation to action to long term impact! -- Pauline Miller * Chief Equity Officer EMEA, Dentsu international *Table of ContentsIntroduction Chapter 1.

Book SynopsisLeadership in the corporate and business world has dominated the literature and research there is a lack of research into what might constitute the most effective mechanisms to develop leadership within Police organizations. The need for effective leadership in policing is quite evident, given the range of accounts of Police officers and Police organizations failing to serve the public with professionalism and integrity. Because of the nature of the Police organization as a complex adaptive system, police leaders are not insulated nor isolated from the many internal and external forces that impact the police organization.Effective Police Leadership in the 21st Century: New Paradigms for a Novel Context is a first-of-its-kind publication as there are currently no books with an interdisciplinary and international framework focused on Police leadership in the 21st century context, it features case Studies from real-world Police leadership situations are included and has an international, interdisciplinary team of editors and authors.Effective Police Leadership in the 21st Century provides a platform and pathway to equip existing and emerging Police leaders with a range of leadership mindsets and skillsets.

Book SynopsisFollowership as a separate concept within leadership studies gained prominence in the 1990s and has evolved over the past few decades into an indispensable component of the discipline. Nevertheless, misunderstandings about followers and their relationship to leaders prevail. Exploring what it takes to be a follower is increasingly important in the current organizational, social, and political landscapes rife with narcissism, a seemingly acceptable leadership characteristic in the twenty-first century. Being a follower to a mercurial leader isn’t easy – especially if they are an alien Time Lord who has lived for centuries in various body incarnations. Followers must not be passive, but full partners in the leader/follower relationship to enable them to reach goals and provide the skills and perspectives leaders need for organizational success. Requiring courage, the numerous and varied companions in the TV series Doctor Who provide a compelling and interesting example of followership from which we can learn to become better, more courageous, followers. By leveraging the intersection of popular culture, leadership theory, and followership theory, Courageous Companions offers an accessible new perspective for those who desire to gain a greater understanding of leaders and followers to transform their relationships and organizations. Exploring Effective Leadership Practices through Popular Culture aims to bring examples, theory and methodology of leadership to life by analysing academic concepts through popular culture examples that will appeal to a broad range of readers.Table of ContentsWhat is Followership and Why is it Important?

Book SynopsisThis timely Research Handbook provides a broad analysis and discussion on how academics are managed. It addresses key issues, including the changing nature of academic work and academic labour markets, issues of power, leadership, ageing, human resource management practices, and mobility.As academia is increasingly questioned as an elite profession, a narrative of casualisation, precarity, inequality, long hours, surveillance, austerity, erosion of pay, exacerbated competition, and harmful power relations has come to dominate. Expert contributors provide multiple perspectives on how academics are managed and how the management of academics influences their roles and careers. Chapters consider how academics’ characteristics, such as gender, age, and position in their academic career, influence or are influenced by the way in which academics are managed. Drawing together a range of theoretical approaches as well as a broad geographical coverage, this Research Handbook offers an important contribution to the debates surrounding the shifting frontiers of managing academics and the questions raised for individuals, higher education institutions, and higher education systems.This Research Handbook will be a useful resource for academics and advanced students with an interest in human resource management, management and universities, and management education. Higher education professionals and policy makers will also find it to be a helpful guide.Trade Review‘The Research Handbook on Academic Careers and Managing Academics presents wide-ranging and critical perspectives while making an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the changing world of the academic profession. Individually and collectively, academics are encountering considerable changes and challenges to what they do, their performance, and their working environment with calls for greater accountability within and beyond the institution. Managing these changes brings their own complexities and challenges. This is a must read for academics as well as for HE leaders and policy makers, and anyone interested in better understanding higher education today.’ -- Ellen Hazelkorn, Technological University Dublin and BH Associates, Ireland‘A useful collection of essays relating to the academic profession and its role in the contemporary university.’ -- Phillip G.

Book SynopsisThis timely Research Handbook brings together 24 chapters with a wide range of different theoretical perspectives, empirical research, and innovative thought provoking ideas relating to an area of organisation and management that has been neglected for many decades – line managers.With a resurgence of interest in the topic in recent decades, this Research Handbook argues that line managers are a critical element of both employee experiences and organisational performance and worthy of close attention. Split into three sections, chapters present various ways in which line managers can implement HRM practices in the organisation, considering the implementation of a variety of HRM policies and practices (content), a variety of implementation processes (process), and a variety of line management actors. It also develops future directions for research on line managers, such as the future of work, digitalisation, robotisation and AI and the gig economy.Integrating theoretical and empirical research, the Research Handbook on Line Managers will be a key resource for scholars in the fields of business leadership, human resource management and organisation studies. It also provides managerial practices for organisations and line managers who are looking to improve the effectiveness and the efficiency of their work.Table of ContentsContents: 1 Line managers in human resource management: theory, analysis and new developments 1 Keith Townsend, Anna Bos-Nehles and Kaifeng Jiang PART I THEORIES IN LINE MANAGEMENT RESEARCH 2 A systems theory perspective on the frontline manager role 12 Brian Harney and Qian Yi Lee 3 Fitting the line: a review of person‒environment fit theory in line manager research 29 Adam Robertson and Jennifer Chelsea Veres 4 Line managers, role theory and HRM 52 Samantha Evans 5 Frontline managers and human resource management: a social exchange theory perspective 65 Anindita Roy Bannya and Hugh T.J.

Book SynopsisJudgment and Leadership presents original thinking and addresses age-old concerns regarding the relationship between judgment and leadership. These two concepts are inseparable. Judgment guides every action that a leader takes and underlies every thought, emotion, or justification that leaders form. This volume extends the study of judgment and leadership across disciplinary and conceptual boundaries.For the first time, the most original and influential thinkers on judgment and leadership are brought together in a single volume and they represent a diverse set of disciplines, including critical studies, psychology, political theory, international policy, adult learning theory, management and organizational studies, philosophy, cross-cultural studies, and neuroscience. The result is an engaging look at one of the most important issues facing organizations, politics, and society: leaders and their judgment. The book describes the challenges and opportunities that leaders face when confronted with political, social and business challenges and offers an insightful and comprehensive review of leadership and its role in crisis. The authors explore how a leader's actions and judgments are shaped by their experiences. It is a highly accessible account of how leaders learn and practice judgment and a guide for leaders faced with intense and challenging problems.Scholars studying leadership, judgment, decision-making, critical thinking or problem-solving seeking the latest original thinking on the topic of leadership and judgment as well as educators seeking to develop their students' knowledge about judgment from a multidisciplinary perspective will find this volume an invaluable resource as will leadership trainers, educators, coaches, and human resource professionals seeking to improve and develop leaders.Table of ContentsContents: 1 Introduction to judgment and leadership 1 Anna B.

Book SynopsisWilliam Shakespeare and 21st-Century Culture, Politics, and Leadership examines problems, challenges, and crises in our contemporary world through the lens of William Shakespeare's plays, one of the best-known, most admired, and often controversial authors of the last half-millennium. As perhaps the most oft-cited author in the West outside of the Judeo-Christian Bible, Shakespeare has often been considered a sage, providing manifold insights into our shared human qualities and experiences across time and geography. The editors and authors of this accessible book leverage the now global scope of that sibylline reputation to explore what the Bard might tell us about ourselves, our politics, our leaders, and our societies today.The chapters are written with critical rigor and will appeal to scholars and students in leadership and literary studies but are accessible to non-Shakespeare experts. Anyone looking to explore the ongoing relevance of Shakespeare's work will find this volume enlightening and entertaining.Trade Review'Shakespeare Behind Bars was founded to assist the incarcerated in finding their authentic voices through an immersive experience in Shakespeare's original language, complex themes, and multiple meanings. I find myself today, happily aided in this process by writers in this collection from a rich variety of backgrounds who find truth in historical Shakespeare.' -- Curt L. Tofteland, Founder, Shakespeare Behind Bars'This wide-ranging volume marks an exciting moment in the study of leadership and literature alike. Truly interdisciplinary in their approach, informed by rigorous scholarship, and engagingly written, the book’s chapters help to broaden and deepen our understanding of Shakespeare's continuing--in some ways even increasing--resonance with problems of politics, power, and leadership in our world today.' -- Nicholas Warner, Claremont McKenna College, US'Timely studies of a timeless author: from #metoo to racial justice to Donald Trump, this brilliant collection, edited by two leading scholars of leadership and literature, highlights the resonances between contemporary political issues and Shakespeare's complex explorations of authority, civic participation, leadership, autocracy--and human identity itself.' -- Michael Harvey, Provost, Washington College, USTable of ContentsContents: Introduction: “I that please some, try all”: Shakespeare this time 1 Anthony Presti Russell and Kristin M.

Book SynopsisLeadership in the Middle East has never been as vital as it is in the wake of the global financial crisis and the Arab Spring -- yet there is a lack of detailed knowledge concerning strategies for developing capacity in leadership, national skills and knowledge management. This volume aims to address this deficit. This book is the first text on the subject of leadership development in the Middle East to be published in English (drawing on both English and Arabic scholarship) and will contribute to the knowledge and understanding of leadership theory and practice in the global economy. The volume provides in-depth analysis of the social, political and economic factors that shape leadership capacity building efforts and shows how leadership behaviors and practices differ from those in the West, reflecting an ethic of care, social responsibility and concern for developing both organization and individual capabilities as well as fostering community improvement and nation-building and advancing social justice and human well-being. The book reveals the complexity of leadership behaviors in the region and contextualizes analyses with broader contemporary debates including migration, governance, climate change and political leadership succession. The book also includes original insights into the role of women in leadership in business, politics and the community. This unique volume will benefit international organizational behavior/development specialists, international human resource development practitioners and students at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It will be invaluable to development specialists, HR consultants and practitioners on assignment in the Middle East and for policy and capacity development experts in NGOs and international organizations such as the ILO, UN and World Bank.

Book SynopsisA must-read for serious leadership studies scholars, Rethinking Leadership offers a radical reconceptualization of leadership as a contextually embedded, physically embodied phenomenon. The book arrives at original and surprising answers to perennial questions such as 'What is leadership?' and 'How do leaders lead change?', by addressing them from a philosophical, rather than psychological or sociological standpoint. Beautifully written, Ladkin makes complex ideas accessible by illustrating them with practical examples drawn from her wide experience as a leadership academic and management consultant across a range of commercial, political and not-for-profit organisations. A fresh voice amongst the crowded field of leadership studies, Rethinking Leadership delivers not just new answers, but an entirely new way of thinking about leadership and its role in contemporary society.Trade Review‘Books about leadership abound, often generalizing from a heroic leader’s own experiences or reflecting the latest incremental advances in scholarly theorizing. Rethinking Leadership is different in that Ladkin questions the key questions of leadership thinking and thus arrives at a radically different conception of leadership. It is a welcome conception that recognizes the embodied, sensual, felt nature of leadership as an ongoing process involving leaders and followers within a particular context. For the complex and challenging times we live in, we need complex and challenging conceptions of leadership and Donna Ladkin has given us an excellent starting place.’ -- Steve Taylor, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, US‘Beautifully written, insightful and novel, this book departs nicely from mainstream views on leadership and can be strongly recommended to anyone wanting a new look on the complexities, meanings and dynamics of leadership and workplace relations.’ -- Mats Alvesson, Lund University, Sweden‘Donna Ladkin’s inspiring and informed book breaks new ground in leadership studies. Writing lucidly, warmly and accessibly, Ladkin makes philosophy to bear on some key themes of leadership. Picking up concepts from philosophy’s all time greats, she enriches the existing leadership discourse powerfully. Questions of “charisma”, “vision”, indeed the nature of leadership itself, are cast in fresh settings, and they become alive. Skilfully avoiding becoming overtly abstract, with a keen eye to examples, Donna Ladkin delivers a delightful, elevating and original contribution to the rethinking of leadership.’ -- Esa Saarinen, Helsinki University of Technology, Finland‘Adopting a post-positivist phenomenological perspective inspired by the writings of Husserl and Heidegger among others, Donna Ladkin crafts a series of philosophical questions that prompt the reader to deconstruct and reposition many habitually held views of leaders and leadership. Through her deep questioning, Ladkin reminds us that wisdom - the virtue of practical circumspection - is central to the ethical and aesthetic moment of leading. Rethinking Leadership is a refreshing and much-needed re-evaluation of the field, which should be read by anyone with a serious interest in the subject.’ -- Peter Case, University of the West of England, UKTable of ContentsContents: Preface 1.

Book SynopsisA truly international examination of public sector leadership, this book explores the ways leaders of developed nations are addressing current challenges. The overriding question explored by the authors is how public leadership across the globe addresses new challenges (such as security, financial, demographic), new expectations of leaders, and what public sector leadership means in the new era. The book allows the reader to view a large number of situations across the globe to better understand the relation between context and leadership. It integrates the two fields of leadership and public administration, providing a wide-ranging and complementary empirical context to the topic. Transcending state-centered perspectives, the authors include new developments in governance and public-private sector collaboration while retaining a focus on the public values involved. The chapters address public sector leadership issues in a wide array of nations, integrating international perspectives with a globally diverse authorship. Several chapters address issues of collaboration across sectors, changing roles in the New Public Management paradigm, and corresponding new visions of leadership. Several of the chapters are explicitly comparative, including a study of mental health leadership training topics in eight nations, central banking in Europe, and efficiency studies in Britain, Denmark, and Norway. The chapters can be used as thought-provoking case studies as part of a supplemental text, and are accompanied by substantial bibliographies. Scholars, students, and practitioners in leadership, public policy and administration, and organization studies will find this volume a useful reference.Table of ContentsContents: Foreword Robert B.

Book SynopsisSelf-Management and Leadership Development offers a unique perspective on how leaders and aspiring leaders can and should take personal responsibility for their own development.This distinguished book is differentiated from other books on this topic with its view on the instrumental role played by individuals in managing their own development, rather than depending on others, such as their organization, to guide them. Expert scholars in the area of leadership emphasize the importance of self-awareness as the critical starting point in the process. Explicit recommendations are provided on how individuals can manage their own self-assessment as a starting point to their development. The contributors present insights and practical recommendations on how individuals can actively self-manage through a number of typical leadership challenges.Business school faculty teaching electives in leadership, and managers who engage in leadership development for themselves or others, should not be without this important resource. Consulting firms and training institutions offering leadership development programs and participants in MBA and executive development programs will also find it invaluable.Trade Review‘This book is based on a really important, timely and relevant idea - to bring together sources on the self-management of leadership development. The book is important because almost all leadership development relies to a great degree on the leader’s capability to manage his or her personal development. It is timely because there is currently no single volume that covers the topic; and it is relevant because leadership is such an extremely important issue for the success of our organizations, countries and society in general. The editors have done a thoroughly professional job in identifying top quality authors and combining their contributions into a very worthwhile volume.’ -- Ivan Robertson, University of Leeds, UKTable of ContentsContents: Self-Assessment and Leadership Development: An Overview Mitchell G.

Book SynopsisAn entrepreneur who decides to found a firm and to hire employees has to tackle two central problems: their employees' coordination and motivation. Drawing on findings from cognitive, social and organizational psychology, this book sheds new light on the relevance of bounded rationality and social learning in the process of leadership. Silke Scheer bridges some of the missing links that can be identified within the theory of cognitive leadership and demonstrates how its scope can be broadened by investigating group level processes, and how they can have an impact on the socialization of newcomers.Combining both theoretical and empirical explorations, this book will be of great significance to anyone from a managerial or psychological background that is interested in leadership. Academics and students on business, management and entrepreneurship courses will also find this book invaluable.Trade Review'The governance regime of cognitive leadership, its attractive co-operative features, and the challenges it faces in the process of organizational growth are the topic of Silke Scheer's fascinating study. . . To explore the mutual contingencies of socially shared cognitive frames, social models of task commitment, and work motivation at the empirical level is no easy task. . . her study highlights the practical relevance of the cognitive leadership regime and the characteristic motivational features on which it draws that are widely neglected in the modern theory of the firm.' -- From the foreword by Ulrich Witt'We finally have an analysis of management leadership which resolves tensions and brings theory and evidence together in a thoroughly convincing manner. This book shows how effective management leaders can build successful teams, based on commitment and loyalty, by a combination of careful recruitment, selective retention and inspirational empowerment. This significant advance in the literature merits serious attention from economists, psychologists and management scholars interested in the performance of firms.' -- Mark Casson, University of Reading, UKTable of ContentsContents: Foreword by Ulrich Witt 1.
