‘Power’ is taken as central theme for this book, opening up discussion about issues that are often neglected in leadership texts i.e. fairness, equity, justice, resistance, conflict, emancipation, oppression, rationality, politics, globalization, the natural environment, and knowledge.

- A new prologue: ‘An Unconventional History of Leadership Studies′
- A new epilogue on ‘Embodied Leadership, Ethics, and its Affects’ written by David Knights, one of the authors of Embodied Research Methods (pub April 2019)
- 3 new topical integrative case studies, based on current events: Jacinda Ardern’s pregnancy when PM; #MeToo; and Suma Foods co-operative
- Updated research and pedagogical features throughout, including the ‘Leadership on Screen’ feature

About the Author
Brigid Carroll is a Professor in the Department of Management and International Business and holds the Fletcher Building Employee Educational Fund Chair in Leadership at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. She teaches broadly in the area of leadership, organizational theory and qualitative research methods at undergraduate, postgraduate and executive level and does extensive cross sector leadership development work with corporate, community, professional, and youth organisations. Ongoing research themes revolve around identity work, power, responsibility and resistance, leadership development, distributed and collective leadership, cross system governance and discursive/ narrative approaches. Ultimately Brigid is interested in leadership as a discourse, identity, and practice and in exploring how it is constructed and shaped between people, spaces, and artefacts in different organisational contexts. She has published in Organization Studies, Human Relations, AMLE, Management Learning and Leadership and has co-edited three books on Leadership.
Jackie Ford is Professor of Leadership and Organization studies at Durham University Business School, UK.

All of Scott’s research is qualitative, interpretive, and sociological, to understand the human experience of work, management, and workplaces.
