Leadership: revisiting and reframing the big questions on theory and practice
Main Article Content
Abstract
This presentation is an introduction to the special issue of Cadernos EBAPE.BR on leadership. In response to recent calls for more rigorous leadership scholarship, the editors of this issue aim to showcase studies that take a novel approach to assessing the leadership processes. The articles selected demonstrate originality in terms of conceptual framing, methodology, and implications for theory and practice. The collection of four studies, three selected and one invited, allows readers to explore various topics and points of view. Overall, the articles approach leadership as a phenomenon that is not yet fully understood but can be explored from multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives. The editors of this issue also present their assessment of the state of leadership research in Brazil and offer suggestions for future studies.
