Beyond Leadership: Balancing Economics, Ethics and Ecology / Edition 2

by Warren Bennis, Jagdish Parikh, Ronnie Lessem

Overview

Beyond Leadership has been written to enable practitioners and students of leadership to manage uncertainty, diversity, conflict, and complexity. Its lead authors are American, Asian and Afro-European, and this range of perspective is reflected in the individual chapters.

The unique appeal of this book is its global approach to management as the next evolutionary step beyond the major western (American) and eastern (Japanese) perspectives.
