Leadership Influence: A Contact Perspective

Více o knize

The book redefines leadership through the lens of the contact hypothesis, emphasizing the connection between leaders and followers. It critiques traditional models by introducing a leadership contact influence model, supported by ten hypotheses. This model explores dimensions of contact—length, width, and breadth—and examines factors like time quality, generational dynamics, and the complexities of leadership-followership relationships. The discussion also covers absentee leadership and the values that shape effective leadership, ultimately proposing a new standard for evaluating leadership contact.
