Beschreibung

In Why Leaders Fail and What it Teaches Us About Leadership Willem Fourie helps us make sense of leaders' failures and why our expectation of leadership infallibility is misguided
Whereas some leadership failures can be rectified, others lead to the failure of teams, organisations or institutions. Using cutting-edge research and reflective practices, Fourie explores leaders' failure at these personal, interpersonal, group, organisational levels and beyond. He explores five factors that cause leaders to fail:
Ignorance of personal weaknesses
Overconfidence in their influence over others
Destructive bias
Bad fit in their organisation
Misjudged risk
The author shows that our heroic bias - the expectation that leaders should be exceptional, charismatic individuals with a higher level of agency than other people - in many contexts increases the chances of leaders failing. The book offers readers with the tools to understand and respond to leader failure, distilled into seven lessons for post-heroic leaders.
This is an ideal book for students and researchers in leadership, leadership development and management as well as professionals seeking to enhance their leadership skills.
