Summary:

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed extraordinary demands on leaders compelled to navigate a complex, far-reaching event that threatened human life, business continuity and survival. What can leaders learn from the crisis response to equip them for a post-pandemic world and beyond? Leadership in a Post-Pandemic World brings together cutting-edge research by authors Prof. David McGuire and Dr. Marie-Line Germain with thought-provoking evidence-based contributions from leading international researchers offering fresh insights into how leadership approaches and practices have evolved in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Divided into four sections, it discusses the leadership challenges and subsequent skills required to deal with the pandemic in politics, education, healthcare and business industries; emergency planning; organizational and personal resilience; the effect of dysfunctional and narcissistic leaders; lessons learned and how such lessons will shape the leadership of the future. This book is a vital resource for leaders, students of leadership, strategy and management, and anyone interested in the long-term consequences of crisis leadership on our society as a whole.
