Chapter 4 in The Social Development of Leadership and Knowledge, 2013, pp 56-70 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Knowledge is about something. In this chapter we move from the section of the library that has books about knowledge to the section that has books about leadership. We cannot choose a practice that we and all our readers will find equally germane; however, leadership is an example of practical action of which all of us have some experience, whether from trying to lead or from being led (in many cases both); before entering the library we share some of our experience. Leadership is also a practice that looks starkly different when viewed from our two cities.
