Beskrivning

The voluntary sector plays a crucial role in shaping place, and is in turn shaped by that context, yet this ‘place leadership’ role has been underexplored in research. This interdisciplinary book brings together leading scholars and practitioners to examine this intriguing phenomenon in different political and cultural contexts. Using case studies from the UK, the US, China and Europe, the book provides fresh insights into the dynamic relationship between place, leadership and voluntary action. Written in an accessible, jargon-free style, it sets state-of-the-art agendas for understanding and strengthening the voluntary sector’s influence in place leadership.

Recensioner i media

“Rees and Jacklin-Jarvis are to be congratulated for curating a fascinating collection of chapters that capture the state of the art in place-based voluntary sector leadership.” Richard Harries, Caritas Westminster “This book provides strong evidence of the interaction between place and voluntary sector leadership. It recognizes the necessity and value of place-based and relational leadership, which are core strengths of VSOs. Furthermore, by highlighting the importance of relationships, local knowledge, and power dynamics, the book contributes to broader discussions of how voluntary organizations engage with their external environments and provides practical insights for leadership development in local contexts.” Voluntas
