Today?s leaders often face challenging situations or unexpected difficulties, and mastering these requires a wide spectrum of competencies such as creativity, courage and empathy. Therefore, this book provides an interdisciplinary approach including both theoretical concepts and practical findings relevant to optimizing leadership in extreme situations. Issues such as why people act as they do in stressful and extreme situations, or what constitutes the nexus between leadership/followership, organizations, and culture etc., are addressed. Leadership under extreme conditions is a very complex topic and one that has been approached from a variety of perspectives. The contributions to this volume thus originate from various academic disciplines including political science, social sciences, psychology, and philosophy. Insights from the study of in extremis leadership can help researchers and practitioners understand the individual, team and contextual factors that influence leadership and, ultimately, organizational efficiency and effectiveness. Leadership in Extreme Situations is a collection of contributions by selected scholars and field experts. It addresses key issues of leadership, morale and cohesion, as well as ethical questions; provides an ideal entry into the complex world of advanced leadership; and serves as a practical guide for the successful implementation of modern leadership. 410 0$aAdvanced Sciences and Technologies for Security Applications,$x1613-5113 606 $aLeadership 606 $aPolitics and war 606 $aEconomic sociology 606 $aIndustrial psychology 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aBusiness Strategy/Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010 606 $aMilitary and Defence Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912080 606 $aOrganizational Studies, Economic Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22020 606 $aIndustrial and Organizational Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20030 606 $aPolitical Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aPolitics and war. 615 0$aEconomic sociology. 615 0$aIndustrial psychology. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 14$aBusiness Strategy/Leadership. 615 24$aMilitary and Defence Studies. 615 24$aOrganizational Studies, Economic Sociology. 615 24$aIndustrial and Organizational Psychology. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 676 $a658.4092 702 $aHolenweger$b Michael$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJager$b Michael Karl$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKernic$b Franz$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254901403321 996 $aLeadership in Extreme Situations$92026681 997 $aUNINA
