Description

This volume is distinctive because it explores different concepts of leadership, seeks to challenge traditional concepts, and to explode common myths. In contrast to the traditional male, hierarchical, value free and organisational bound construction of leadership, this text presents an alternative construction that is female, non-hierarchical and underpinned and driven by values, rooted in community and beyond the boundaries of traditional organizations. This volume uses examples from research with leading women to portray that leadership is not a floating or external concept, but has tangible, social, cultural and political roots and anchors.
