“This powerful collection brings together scholars known for pushing the boundaries of leadership inquiry beyond traditional, individually-based accounts to explore what happens if we take seriously the spiritual and collective dynamics at leadership’s core. Prepare to see anew traditional theories such as adaptive and transformational leadership, and to be blown away by the possibilities enabled by recognizing leadership as an intuitive, sensory and soul-based experience emerging from the ‘interspace’.”Donna Ladkin, award-winning author of Rethinking Leadership: A New Look at Old Leadership Questions and Professor of Inclusive Leadership, and Professor, Birmingham Business School, University of Birmingham, UK.“I see this edited volume a most timely effort to address the rapidly increased need to better conceptualize and showcase the dynamic interplay between spirituality and leadership. Their intention to include non-western perspectives, along with the shadow side, on this important topic, is courageous and refreshing.”Xiaoan Li, Senior Program Manager, Fetzer Institute.“Imagine leadership knowledge informed by the reciprocal and relational perspectives of ancient, Indigenous, and traditional wisdoms supplemented by emerging best practice and understandings. Imagine leadership oriented towards relationality and care of both others humans and other-than-humans. Imagine leadership where courage challenges existing perspectives and links reflective consciousness as spiritual practice towards building a better world for all, even while acknowledging its dark side. Leadership at the Spiritual Edge offers those perspectives and more in its holistic understanding of leadership is meant to be and do.”Sandra Waddock, award-winning author of Intellectual Shamans and The Difference Makers, and Galligan Chair of Strategy, Carroll School Scholar of Corporate Responsibility, and Professor of Management, Boston College, USA."This avant-garde book weaves together new spiritual perspectives with enduring ones from the past, and voices from the Global North with those from the Global South that need to be heard. Further, this volume dares to sift through the shadows of spirituality, toward bringing social justice and harmony forward."
