Abstract: Leadership is often hailed as an antidote to a range of place-based problems. Yet it continues to be a slippery, highly political and deeply uneven practice, and area of study. At a time of authoritarian leadership renewal, this article troubles the tangled relationship between the constructions of leadership, race and gender, which leaves traces in our geographical imagination of places and people. Advancing place-based leadership studies, it brings forward an agenda to centre feminist, intersectional, postcolonial and decolonial thinking to deepen geographies of leadership. Leadership is a future-orientated practice, yet certain futures being foreclosed in unequal practices and thinking.
