Top-down Direction Setting

Magne Y. Orgland

Chapter 5 in Initiating, Managing and Sustaining Strategic Change, 1997, pp 34-100 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This book uses the term ‘top-down direction setting’ instead of the more popular term ‘leadership’. One reason for this is that definitions of leadership in the literature vary greatly from author to author. According to one estimate, there are currently at least one hundred accepted academic definitions of leadership (Terry, quoted in Manz et al., 1991).
