Evolving Leadership: New Clues and Cues Toward Environment and Context

Abstract

The current article presents a vision of leadership that looks toward a new and different future, rather than seeking a return to the familiar past. We draw from an integrative literature review, covering the last decade, which addresses leadership concepts researched most frequently. Topics include the leader–follower bond (engagement and empowerment), relationship building (functional vs. dysfunctional), emotional intelligence, and leadership development. As the study of leadership progresses, existing disciplinary silos and reward structures may hinder innovation in leadership, as there have been significant changes to the environment and context in which leadership is practiced. Leaders are challenged to break from the mold, be innovative beyond limits and focus on the complex demands of 21st century situations, ranging from the short‐term gig economy to more traditional organizational settings. Implications for future research related to leadership operating within complex adaptive systems are discussed.

Leadership qualities have thus been an important factor for refurbishment project managers and therefore they became a key component of successful project performance.…”
