This work gathers theoretical and empirical essays, opinion pieces, and profiles of real leaders (such as Nelson Mandela), written by international contributors in management, organizational
psychology, and business administration. All of the selections come from the perspective that leadership is a relational phenomenon. The first part of the book gives background on historic,
critical, and subjective perspectives; other sections are devoted to characteristics of and pathways to authentic leadership, and methods for developing authentic leaders. Some specific topics
include the emotional labor of authentic leadership, personal ambitions and authenticity, authentic leadership in virtual spaces, and authentic Canadian Aboriginal leadership. Annotation ©2014
