Abstract: Abstract Chapter 4 has illustrated how an understanding of informal leadership development has begun to cohere towards an emphasis on the variability of contexts and the breadth of individual experience that shapes leadership learning. For example, greater variety of contexts and roles were seen to be associated with an enriched appreciation of leadership and approaches to leading (Davies & Easterby-Smith, 1984). Similarly, task assignments in a range of contexts with associated hardships and modelled opportunities for observation were common broad themes shaping leadership learning (McCall et al., 1988; McCall, 2004).
