Reviews

'This book gives a theoretically and empirically robust account of the emotional dynamics of leadership. It offers both a genuine contribution to the field and a fresh look at the work of leading.' Richard Bolden, University of Exeter, UK 'This edited collection provides a fascinating and intellectually challenging perspective on the labour of leadership as an emotional rather than purely psychological and individual act of influence. A must read for students and academics interested in the critical study of leadership.' Simon Kelly, Bradford University, UK
