Fictional Leaders: Heroes, Villains and Absent Friends

by Peter Villiers and Jonathan Gosling

Book Overview

Management theory is vague about the experience of leading. Success, power, achievement are discussed but less focus is given to negative experiences leaders faced such as loneliness or disappointment. This book addresses difficult-to-explore aspects of leadership through well-known works of literature drawing lessons from fictional leaders.
