On the Nature of Leadership

By Richard A. Barker

Book Overview

On The Nature of Leadership explores the ontological and epistemological issues associated with the study and practice
of the social phenomenon we call leadership. Specifically, limitations of industrial models and of applied research in the areas of leadership, ethics, and organizational analysis are addressed, and a new approach is suggested. It is designed for scholars and students who truly wish to know what leadership is. This work portrays an evolutionary development in thought about leadership, about ethics, and about social and political processes in general.
