| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | 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<br/><br/>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:<br/><br/><br/>Ignorance of personal weaknesses<br/><br/>Overconfidence in their influence over others<br/><br/>Destructive bias<br/><br/>Bad fit in their organisation<br/>Misjudged risk<br/>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.<br/><br/>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.<br/>(https://www.routledge.com/Why-Leaders-Fail-and-What-It-Teaches-Us-About-Leadership/Fourie/p/book/9781032381367) |
