What is e-Leadership? - Literature Review: A summary of scholarly opinion

"Leadership is one of the most observed and least understood phenomena on earth" J.M. Burns (1978). What is leadership? Why do people follow some individuals? How do these individuals influence people to follow them? Must leaders be born with certain special traits (leadership qualities) that cannot be learned? Is it possible to teach leadership and develop leaders? Is there a difference between a leader and a manager? Must managers be leaders too? Should leaders have management skills? Questions. Questions. Questions. This publication is a review of scholarship on the relatively new phenomenon called e-leadership ( largely a result of globalization), where leaders may be geographically disconnected from their teams, and connected only through computers, the Internet, and other communication mediums.
