They find a major shift in leadership theory associated with World War II. Prewar theories are seen as limited and defective in that they posit a vision on the part of the leader and his ability to impose that vision on the followers; postwar theories stress, in addition, a shared vision and leader-follower interaction. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA leader's view of leadership, Rejai and Phillips find, is constrained by the person's conception of human nature; the lighter the conception of human nature, the more flexible the nature of leadership; the darker the view of human nature, the more rigid the nature of leadership. This book will be of particular interest to scholars, students, and other researchers involved with political theory and leadership studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mostafa Rejai, Kay Philips\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 027597801X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275978013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.72h x 6.14w x 0.61d","brand":"Mostafa Rejai","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43981529481471,"sku":"9780275978013","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45d1f1e0-0521-43f1-844a-89bf17a806b1.jpg?v=1683256115","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/concepts-of-leadership-in-western-mostafa-rejai-9780275978013","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
