Quotes From This Episode
- “I would like to start a conversation in our field – “What does it really mean to be an effective leader in a way that we can all get around some agreement?”
- (In part, our work is about) “Trying to help leaders and emerging leaders see things in new, more complex, more mature ways.”
- (Leadership scholars are) “all using different vocabulary to talk about not identical concepts, but overlapping concepts, it would be good to start talking about, well, what do we mean in a disciplined way?”
- “We’re not teaching students how to make more effective meaning of what’s going on in front of them so that they can apply the concepts in their actual life, on a minute-to-minute basis.”
- “Most introduction to leadership courses are really an introduction to the history of leadership studies.”
