In it, the author considers business and organisational leadership from an aesthetic perspective and in the context of various geographical and historical settings. The book examines the work of a variety of artists, and examines how public representations of business and political figures are used as a tool of leadership. Using a Foucauldian perspective, the book explores the interconnected concepts of power and knowledge, examining how visual images are used in the Middle Eastern context for leaders to communicate with their followers and the public. The Bedouin business world provides a unique opportunity for the researcher to examine the interplay between culture, management and politics. The book will be of interest to academics working in the fields of aesthetics, leadership, management,culture, and the Middle East more broadly. .Palgrave Studies in Business, Arts and Humanities,2662-1274ManagementInternational business enterprisesArtsManagementInternational BusinessArtsManagement.International business enterprises.Arts.Management.International Business.Arts.730.0967650Bitar Amer1062894MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910863158403321Bedouin visual leadership in the Middle East2528969UNINA
