Financial crises & disasters; Management: leadership & motivation

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed extraordinary demands on leaders compelled to navigate a complex, far-reaching event that threatened human life, business continuity and survival. What can leaders learn from the crisis response to equip them for a post-pandemic world and beyond?

Leadership in a Post-Pandemic World brings together cutting-edge research by authors Prof. David McGuire and Dr. Marie-Line Germain with thought-provoking evidence-based contributions from leading international researchers offering fresh insights into how leadership approaches and practices have evolved in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Divided into four sections, it discusses the leadership challenges and subsequent skills required to deal with the pandemic in politics, education, healthcare and business industries; emergency planning; organizational and personal resilience; the effect of dysfunctional and narcissistic leaders; lessons learned and how such lessons will shape the leadership of the future.

This book is a vital resource for leaders, students of leadership, strategy and management, and anyone interested in the long-term consequences of crisis leadership on our society as a whole.

Reviews for Leadership in a Post-COVID Pandemic World

"""As organizations across sectors reflect upon 'what worked' (and failed) in leadership responses to the Covid crisis ⁠- as well as what comes next ⁠- this uniquely timely book brings together leading international researchers to analyse lessons for the theory, practice and understanding of leadership in a post-covid 'new normal'. By gathering insights from a range of sectors and places, McGuire and Germain have produced an invaluable text that will benefit leaders, and those of us who study and teach leadership, helping us to consider lessons for practice and priorities for future research."" ⁠- Professor Colin Lindsay, University of Strathclyde, Scotland"
