Navigating Leadership provides evidence-based tools and recommendations to develop your leadership successfully. The book integrates knowledge in the areas of leadership and followership from evidenced-based global research and translates the findings into suggestions for organizational best-practices.
Am I leader? How can I grow as a leader? How am I doing as leader? How can I move on and let go of leadership? In a changing world of work, people are confronted with these questions about their leadership every day. This book considers such topics as reflecting on goals, impostorism, memory, experiencing meaningfulness at work, measuring leader performance and the challenge of leaving leadership, to offer ideas and answers to these questions of what it means to be a leader and how you can thrive on your own personal leadership journey. Each chapter provides a range of applied cases, tools and techniques, and critical commentaries to help uncover your leader identity, address personal challenges, and accelerate your leadership development.
Addressing the persistent gap between research and practice in leadership and followership through research-practice translation, this is the ideal resource for professionals, at both an individual and organizational level, looking to support and increase leadership development. It will also appeal to scholars and students of leadership, followership, and leader identities.
