Beschreibung
There is a clear gap in the market for a survey text on leadership theory that is interdisciplinary, designed for use with college students, and grounded in social justice. Existing texts tend to be bound to a single discipline, such as business or psychology, lack the critical perspective necessary to fully understand the justice orientation central to many contemporary leadership theories, and omit important theories designed to teach leadership at the postsecondary level. The Second Edition of Leadership Theory: Cultivating Critical Perspectives addresses each of these issues, making it the only leadership textbook comprehensive enough for standalone use in courses and leadership programs.

This survey text examines a wide range of leadership theories and applications, using critical social theory as a framework that allows for an emphasis on social justice. The book discusses the evolving nature of leadership and guides readers as they apply their learning through a critical social theory lens.

Each chapter is brought to life by a dynamic narrative from an exemplary leader. These narratives are drawn from across industries and career fields, but they all highlight individuals who are deeply engaged in the work of leadership for social justice. This Second Edition includes fresh stories from Sheri Brady, Gaby Pacheco, Kevin Martin, and others. All will serve as springboards for in-class discussion.

With clear organization and intelligent discussions of the many theories covered, Leadership Theory, Second Edition helps students build a firm and flexible foundation of knowledge that can also translate into leadership skill. Instructors will appreciate the available supplementary materials, including a facilitator's guide, supplemental case studies, sample syllabi, structured dialogues, and learning activities tied to each chapter. Revisions bringing the content up to date add further value to this new edition.
