The challenges presented by business environments worldwide require managers to have a strong sense of leadership. The wealth of literature on coping and resilience lacks a fundamental theory to link coping with leadership; on the contrary, the popular cognitive resource theory of leadership states that leaders lose their cognitive skills under stress, and advocates the value of experience only in the face of challenges. LEADERSHIP AND COPING is a research based book , it weaves the relationship between leadership style and the ability of a leader to cope with the stress of uncertainty in business. It therefore discloses and advises new practical principles to assist in the development of leadership cultivation programs. It also synthesizes a modified version of the Sense Of Coherence psychometric test applicable to measure coping in business contexts.

New dimension of leadership

Byshadi obeidaton April 6, 2013

Format: Paperback

There are few academic books that touch on the topic of leadership coping & resilience despite the extreme necessity of the subject in today's business environment.This book is beneficial since it brings together a comprehensive review of the leadership / coping theories from critique perspective with general recommendations for effective practices when it comes to leadership cultivation programs.

The author also includes in his appendices an empirically validated self assessment questionair for leadership coping

Although an academic book , but also written in an accessible format & easy flow for mainstream readers.
