The birth of philosophical thought across the ancient world brought with it a keen interest in the study of leadership– reflections on who should lead and on how to create the best leadership structures became central to the debates of most prominent ancient philosophers.Philosophy and Leadership offers a panorama of the main philosophies, both ancient and modern, which form the basis of contemporary leadership theories. This book will draw on many philosophical positions to offer a critique of the most important nodes of modern leadership studies–such as ethics, purpose, meaning, and legacy. It will include probing questions and theoretical as well practical exercises aimed at reinforcing the points discussed in each chapter, as well as examples from history, literature, films, and music.This book will be invaluable reading for scholars on undergraduate and postgraduate leadership courses, as well as those studying philosophy, leadership ethics and business ethics, and responsible leadership.

“Philosophy and Leadership is a fundamental contribution to today’s dramatic situation, where democratically legitimated leadership is questioned by populism and populistic authoritarian concepts. Marturano answers with a quite dense but fascinating overview of the philosophical development of leadership from the ancient Greek tradition till contemporary authors, especially logical analysis of the charismatic understanding of Max Weber, and ends with an indispensable ethical focus. A small but rich book of helpful insights and suggestions." Card. Prof. Walter Kasper, President Emeritus of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity
