Abstract

Summary This article explores the crisis in leadership focusing on the period since the banking crisis. It is written from a practitioner perspective and includes a review of a survey of 16 global companies and their attitudes and perspectives on leadership development. The article also explores applications of a framework developed at MIT looking at leadership in an age of uncertainty. There are in-depth recent case studies on leadership development at Sony Europe and PricewaterhouseCoopers. Key assumptions include the fact that leadership is distributed across an organisation and that leadership evolves as an organisation's environment shifts. The article concludes with some views on future leadership development.
