Mosaic Leadership for a Multipolar World - by Jonathan Passmore Paperback

About the Book

"This book seeks to expand the understanding of leadership beyond traditional Western approaches by delving into Indigenous, African, and Asian perspectives. The text addresses the decolonisation debate and provides a resource for those looking to diversify their reading with non-Western leadership models. It aims to offer authentic native perspectives rather than translating Western models. The book is structured in three sections: understanding leadership from Indigenous, African, and Asian viewpoints; presenting 25 leadership models from these regions; and discussing the future of leadership development in a globally connected yet culturally diverse world"-- Provided by publisher.
