This book is a philosophical exploration of the relationship between leadership and organization. Each chapter in the book sheds light on this relationship by exploring leadership with respect to a particular theme: charisma, authority, religion, language, authenticity, image and followership. These themes are linked to popular notions of leadership, such as transformational leadership, authentic leadership and servant leadership.Offering insight into the ways in which leadership is understood in contemporary culture, the main thesis of Leadership and Organization is that understandings of leadership today are still shaped by the figure of the charismatic leader, even though charismatic leadership itself has lost much of its appeal. The clearest expression of this paradigm is the leadership-management distinction, where the leader is someone who transcends the organization and the manager someone who resides within the organization. Drawing on a broad variety of sources in continental philosophy, the author explores the central philosophical question of how leadership can be understood in relation to organizationThis book provides new perspectives on leadership that will be of interest to all students, academics and practitioners who are interested in challenging their thinking about leadership. It will particularly appeal to those considering leadership studies from a critical or philosophical angle.

Vi lever i ett samhälle som är besatt av ledarskap och vi tror att i stort sett alla sociala eller ekonomiska problem går att åtgärda eller lösa genom bättre ledarskap. Detta engagemang i ledarskap åtföljs ibland av hjältedyrkan, önsketänkande och missriktade förhoppningar.För att mer allsidigt förstå ledarskap och stimulera en mer realistisk praktik diskuterar författarna sex metaforer för ledare: trädgårdsmästaren, kompisen, helgonet, cyborgen, befälhavaren och översittaren. Metaforerna har sin grund i en rad djupstudier av chefer som försöker utöva ledarskap, och erbjuder oväntade insikter i hur ledarskap fungerar och inte fungerar. Boken belyser mångskiftande – ofta motsägelsefulla och ibland mörkare – sidor av ledarskap.Genom att kritiskt reflektera över dagens managementmättade ledarskapslitteratur presenterar Ledarskapsmetaforer ett upplysande och uppfriskande sätt att förstå ett viktigt ämne. Boken riktar sig lika mycket till studenter och forskare som till den tänkande chefen.
