Leadership theories - Martin Kuengienda - Bog

Leadership theories Classic and contemporary modelsThe development of leadership skills is a major issue in today's ever-changing society. The central idea is that the type of leadership depends above all on the characteristics of the employees. If they are competent and motivated, delegation or participative leadership can be envisaged. If, on the other hand, they are less competent and less motivated, authoritarian or motivational leadership will be more appropriate.This book provides a synthetic and sometimes critical account of the history and diversity of leadership theories applied to organizations and the exercise of power. It also takes a forward-looking look at recent contemporary developments, which are sometimes difficult to decipher.
