Book Description
A massive paradigm shift in the world of work and the way we manage people. What’s changing – everything! All of this has been brought about by several converging factors. The impact of COVID on how we work; causing a shift from where work is done. Recent significant changes in Artificial intelligence, Chat GPT and robotics will impact on every area of work worldwide – it’s happening now. Predictably, fewer people are now required in the world of work; those with a potentially amazing career will be talented people who will be paid on what they do rather than what they know – a huge change. A new type of management. Inspirational leaders with a special skillset will be in high demand. Managers of the past are unlikely to have the skills or personality to get the best from the new breed of super employees. In this book we will look at all these issues and provide readers with the current facts, case studies form the world’s leading companies, worked examples and most importantly practical advice on how to do it.

Book Description
Of the many books written about leadership, few move beyond conventional accounts of theory, or truly scrutinise the leadership agenda. However, this exciting book sets a new agenda for the interpretation of leadership and development. Including contributions from some of the most distinctive leaders in the field, it considers the newest themes to come out of the leadership debate. Topics covered include: * leadership and integrity * learning leadership * career individualization * leadership development in the public sector. One of the first books to systematically link leadership and management, this distinctive and challenging text examines leadership in the context of career development. It critically assesses the more conventional training and development available to managers, and in doing so equips readers with the analytical perspectives and tools needed to understand the significance of leadership in contemporary organizations.

Book Description
This book undertakes a critical exploration of the tools and techniques of leadership and management, favoured by many of today's books. It contests the claims that the tools and techniques are based on evidence and explains why human activities of leading and managing are simply not amenable to scientific proof and consequently, why long-term futures of organizations are unpredictable.

Part I of the text offers a leadership primer, introducing the elements of business and educational environments in which sport organizations operate. Students will learn how leaders in sport organizations typically assume both managerial and leadership roles and how these roles integrate and diverge, and they will review the historical foundation and evolution of leadership theories from the academic literature. Part II covers applied leadership thought and action and how leaders can become more effective in addressing critical challenges of the present and future. Key topics such as decision making, organizational change, emotional intelligence, vision, strategic planning, and crisis management are discussed. Professional growth and development are the focus of part III, considering multiple approaches and tools for improving self-understanding, personal development, and leadership mentoring.
