Volume l0 in this distinguished series addresses two distinct but interrelated philosophical movements, which exemplify different approaches to the study of ethics. Praxiology, an unique Central European philosophical movement, embraces the study of purposeful and conscious action and the elements essential to each action, act, and causative act. Pragmatism, an uniquely American philosophical movement, was founded by Charles S. Peirce and William James, and is based on the meaning of conceptions, defined in their practical bearings that guides actions and measures them by practical consequences of belief. The chapters in this volume are grouped in a section on Praxiology and one on Pragmatis...
The terms, leadership and management, have been defined in many different ways and perhaps this is possibly what has created such a ?theory jungle? within the fields. It is argued in Leadership and Management: Emerging, Contemporary, and Unorthodox Perspectives, that an innovative and clarifying discussion of leadership and management should include perspectives on theories and models, styles and attributes, teamwork, diversity, and strategic challenges at a national level. The book is clustered around these five themes given the importance of each of these clusters to the current and future states of the fields of leadership and management, and presents unique perspectives from leadership i...
Leadership education and development has been around for a long time. But, to the disappointment of many participants, such programs are not guaranteed to make them better leaders.

Management and Welfare: Applications and Theories of Leadership for the Economy, State, and Healthcare is an attempt to bring theories from organizational studies and the social sciences to apply them to "new" academic areas of study. By "new," we are not suggesting that these disciplines have not examined leadership. However, we are suggesting that applying theories from organizational studies is novel to these fields. As noted above, many leadership studies from a social sciences (albeit organizational) context and can inform perspectives outside the "business" realm to which they are unfortunately often relegated. Unfortunately, there are often too few truly interdisciplinary approaches t...
