For many years, traditional approaches to the study of leadership have reflected three common assumptions: First, leadership is a property of the leaders; second, there is a clear distinction between leaders and followers; and third, leadership is associated with a position in some traditional or formal hierarchy. It is only in the last decade or so that new approaches have started to emerge with the purpose of replacing the dominant leader-centered approach to studying, developing and practicing leadership. This four-volume major work for the first time brings together the key literature charting these developments - including theoretical perspectives, studies and research methods - and which represent new approaches as well as providing an overview of the emerging, exciting, and promising trends in the field of leadership studies. Volume One: Collective Leadership and/or Leadership as a Property of the Group Volume Two: Leadership in Emerging Contexts: Complexity, Virtuality, and Intergroup Situations Volume Three: Leadership in Social Networks Volume Four: Other Emerging Issues: The Role of Followers in the Leadership Process, Relational and Social Constructionist Approaches, and the Neuroscience Approach to Leadership
