Informationen zum Autor WILFRED (BILL) H. DRATH is a group director of New Lenses on Leadership and senior fellow at the renowned Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro, North Carolina. His book is based on many years of work with managers and organizations on issues of leadership development. Klappentext Bill Drath stellt ein neues, revolutionäres Führungsmodell vor, das auf dem Prinzip des sog. "Relational Leadership" basiert. Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Vorstellungen persönlicher Führung versteht man unter "Relational Leadership" nicht die Führung im Besitz eines Einzelnen, sondern Führen als Gemeinschaftsaufgabe, denn effektive Führung ist in erster Linie eine Gemeinschaftsaktivität. Anhand einer fiktiven Geschichte verdeutlicht Drath die Entwicklung des Führungsgedankens bis hin zum "Relational Leadership". Dadurch wird verständlich, warum eine neue Konzeption des Führens notwendig ist, um die Probleme des 21. Jahrhunderts erfolgreich zu meistern. Wilfred Drath ist Mitarbeiter des anerkannten Center for Creative Leadership und an den neuesten Forschungaktivitäten zum Thema "Leadership" beteiligt. Zusammenfassung This title presents a leadership framework called "relational leadership". In contrast to traditional notions of personal leadership, relational leadership looks at leadership not as the possession of an individual leader, but as an aspect of the community.
