The Leadership Illusion [electronic resource] : The Importance of Context and Connections /
Hall, T.author.
Janman, K.author.
This book is about the "leadership illusion"; the habit of writers, researchers and leaders, when considering causes of success or failure, to focus mainly on the individual and often the context but rarely both. This book argues that context and individual are inextricably linked and we first must make sense of the context in which leaders operate.
