Chapter Chapter 2 in Leadership - What Really Matters, 2011, pp 17-115 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract John F. Kennedy, Mahatma Gandhi and Sir Winston Churchill were exemplary leaders of nations. With regard to leading workers, Heidrick and Struggles ask, “What is good leadership?” This is a complex and highly philosophical question, which has been met with innumerable, often opposing answers from management schools and theory. Typically, leaders are evaluated concerning their practices, leading to more confusion than clarification.
