In this book, leadership experts explore and debate how come there are so many bad leaders, and also suggest remedies for how the current situation could be improved. Some of the experts suggest that reasons for why bad leaders are so common are searched for in people: more specifically leaders-to-become, acting leaders or followers. Other experts suggest that reasons are to be found in the leadership role (or expectations on those having such role), in the lack of support for leaders, or in beliefs about leadership. On the backdrop of their suggested explanation as to why there are so many bad leaders, the experts also suggest – more or less explicitly – remedies that could be taken to decrease the number of bad leaders as well as their negative impact. The very presumption that this book rests upon also get its fair share of critique, by some of the experts.This book is the second one to be published in the book series Palgrave Debates in Business and Management. weiterlesen
