Leadership Paradoxes: Rethinking Leadership for an Uncertain World

By Morgen Witzel

Book Overview

This book argues that the key to understanding and enhancing leadership education, theory and practice lies in the recognition of leadership's paradoxical tendencies. Through in-depth analysis of nine interconnected paradoxes the international team of contributors illustrate the tensions, dilemmas and challenges faced by leaders and managers in organisations, and suggest ways in which they can be reconceived as opportunities to be embraced rather than as problems to be solved.
