About this book
Reviews
“Academics and practitioners parched for evidence-based, informed views on leader and leadership development outside Western / Northern mainstream cultures will have their intellectual thirst both satisfied and stimulated by this valuable compendium of insights into philosophies, research, and practice--of leadership in public, private and MNC contexts in BRICS and other countries not frequently covered in talent development scholarship.” (Victoria J. Marsick, Professor, Columbia University, USA)
“This impressive volume opens up the highly timely topic of leadership development within an often overlooked part of the world: that of emerging markets. Over 17 chapters, a group of truly diverse and renowned scholars cover the theory and practice of leadership development in countries ranging from Brazil to Vietnam and from Poland to Ghana. This book contains a wealth of knowledge for anyone interested in the development of upcoming market economies.” (Rob F. Poell, Professor, Tilburg University, The Netherlands)
