Leadership
Editors: M Iszatt-White, C Saunders and T Botha Authors: W Ladzani, S Rudansky-Kloppers and J Strydom
Leadership is an increasingly important concept which is being heralded as a necessary topic to be included in undergraduate courses at South African institutions, given the dearth of leadership skills displayed, especially in the public sector. Leadership is a subject which should be approached in a holistic manner, particularly within the economic and management sciences. The purpose of this textbook is to identify the principles of leadership in contemporary business organisations and to develop the students’ understanding of the interrelatedness of leadership and management in order to achieve organisational goals. The textbook also covers contemporary issues in practising leadership for success. The book aims to encourage students to understand the principles and the importance of eff ective leadership in modern organisations, the leadership skills that are necessary in modern organisations, the role of leaders in workplace relations and teamwork, the importance of leadership ethics and the formulation of leadership standards, and evaluation of leadership performance.
This title is suitable for senior undergraduate students who are studying leadership as part of a degree in the economic and management sciences at universities.
