Abstract

This book provides an important critique of leadership studies. Rost contends a majority of leadership studies are about management rather than leadership. He challenges the industrial paradigm of leadership as management and calls for a new school of leadership. He offers a new post-industrial definition of leadership as "an influence relationship among leaders and followers who intend real changes that reflect their mutual purposes." Rost believes the dynamic interaction between leaders and followers has been overlooked. The author's concepts can provide new directions for the study and practice of leadership.
