Chapter 12 in Leadership After COVID-19, 2022, pp 203-219 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract As the world prepares for recovery after the Covid-19 pandemic, it will be clear that the world community is evolving into a cogent and unified planetary society. Humankind will continue to confront existential threats, including those demographic, environmental, pandemic, and technological in nature, as well as war conflicts. These threats will require cogent transformational leadership to meet extraordinary planetary system challenges effectively and proactively. In evoking the possible contours of the future landscape, this chapter underscores the need for cogent and ethical leadership values that will drive and transform the emerging integrated planetary society towards the end of the twenty-first century. Transformational leaders will transcend national paradigms and form the foundations and shape of future planetary solutions and systems. Such systems will not be a panacea but will allow for more humane and integrated collaboration and coordinated approaches to humankind development and foster greater environmental integrity, harmony, justice, and peace.
