detailed reviews and perspectives within the respective areas. Each chapter, authored by leading international authorities in the various leadership sub-disciplines, explores the history and background of leadership in organizations, examines important research issues in leadership from both
quantitative and qualitative perspectives, and forges new directions in leadership research, practice, and education.
