Leadership must be studied scientifically, according to John Antonkais, Professor of Organizational Behavior, editor in chief of The Leadership Quarterly, and ILA Lifetime Achievement Award Winner. There is too much opinion out there peddled by consultants and too much bad research promulgated by well-meaning but badly trained researchers making claims they do not have the evidence to support.
Quote
“As the corona fog clears, I trust too that scientists will see why they need to study leadership with the same urgency and energy they study molecules, vaccines, and interventions; simply put, leadership is an effective weapon that must be added to our arsenal to fight viral pandemics.”
