The Nature of Leadership Summary

The Nature of Leadership by David V. Day

Written by a team of leading experts in leadership studies, The Nature of Leadership provides compelling answers to the most vexing questions surrounding leadership: Is leadership measurable? Are there traits that reliably distinguish leaders from nonleaders? Does the situation matter? Are there differences in women's and men's leadership styles? Is ethical leadership effective leadership? Are elements of leadership culturally bounded whereas other elements are universal? Does vision really matter? Can leadership be developed?

The new volume includes 16 chapters divided into five parts: Introduction, Leadership: Science, Nature, and Nurture; The Major Schools of Leadership; Special Topics in Leadership; and Conclusion. Topical coverage within these parts include research methods, leader and leadership development, evolutionary and biological perspectives of leadership, individual differences, situational and contingency theories, transformational, charismatic, and shared leadership, followership, gender, identity, culture, and ethics.

The Nature of Leadership Reviews

I found the 2nd Edition of The Nature of Leadership to be a thorough examination of leadership with an additional focus on prompting researchers and practitioners to move toward theory integration as a means of further advancing the study in this field. Theory building and theory integrationinvolving levels of analysis is no simple task to accomplish, but The Nature of Leadership provides an excellent road map for those interested in both.

-Matthew Upton, (2012) The Nature of Leadership, European Journal of Training and Development, Vol. 36 Iss: 5, pp.562 - 564

-- Matthew Upton
Each chapter concludes with several discussion questions, supplementary readings (including notes and case studies), and extensive references, all of which makes this book a must for serious upper-level undergraduate and graduate students of leadership. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Outstanding Title. -- M. J. Safferstone * Choice Reviews Online *
