Written by an author team from one of Europe's leading management schools, Leadership encourages critical appraisal of the mainstream viewpoints and personal reflection on leadership experience in a way that is both clear and highly engaging.

Divided into four parts, the audiobook brings together core themes and debates within the field and provides a wealth of diverse real-world case studies to help listeners make the transition from theory to practice. The first part of the audiobook, "Defining the Terrain," lays the foundation for subsequent chapters by exploring what we mean by leadership, how it compares to management, and why we study it. The second and third parts of the audiobook build on this, addressing core topics that have shaped leadership thinking for academics and practitioners over the last 50 years; as well as considering the cutting-edge debates within the field and tackling issues such as leadership-as-practice, strategic leadership, ethical leadership, and leading change. Finally, the fourth part, "Developing Leaders," explores traditional and state-of-the-art development techniques before encouraging the listener to consider their own leadership through identity work.
