This handbook captures a rapidly developing body of scholarship to map out the terrain of leadership communication and stimulate interdisciplinary dialogue among leadership communication scholars for future research.
The Routledge Handbook of Organizational Leadership Communication surveys various areas of leadership communication, critically assesses their development, and proposes guidance for future research. It begins by addressing prominent theories or emerging theoretical perspectives that help conceptualize leadership communication, ranging from collective leadership approaches and critical perspectives to theories of practice and communicative constitution of organization. The second section focuses on reviewing the latest research on leadership communication in various organizational contexts, such as work teams, hybrid and virtual work contexts, and interorganizational collaboration. Informed by diverse theoretical perspectives, chapters in the final section examine the practice of leadership communication in dealing with both common and novel organizing challenges and processes, for example, the formation and execution of organizational vision and strategies, the use of emerging media technologies, and organizational decision making.
The handbook will be an indispensable resource for researchers and advanced students in leadership communication and leadership studies and practicing managers and consultants in leadership and communication training and development.
