Abstract: Leadership today is under intense scrutiny. Despite sustained investment in development programs, many executives and HR leaders still report low satisfaction with leadership pipelines and real-world leadership performance. As Haslam, Alvesson, and Reicher (2024) argue, this paradox stems from organizations clinging to outdated ideas—what they term "zombie leadership"— that prioritize charisma, status, and positional authority over collaboration, reflection, and purpose. These legacy ideas remain embedded in organizational cultures and leadership selection processes.
