Negative leadership : international perspectives / edited by Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Watola, PhD & Commander Dave Woycheshin, PhD.: D2-367/2016E

"Negative Leadership has approached the topic from a wide range of perspectives. The chapters provide a thorough review of negative leadership, encompassing concepts such as toxic leadership, destructive leadership, abusive supervision, and unethical leadership, and apply these concepts to the analysis of case studies. Chapters in this volume also discuss the organizational conditions that allow negative leadership to develop and persist in the workplace. Other concepts that are relevant to negative leadership are introduced, such as cynicism and hubris. In addition, ways to measure negative leadership characteristics in individuals and to screen for potential negative leaders in the selection process are presented in this volume. Other chapters highlight issues of negative leadership that arise in particular countries; for example, conflicting leadership styles in the Norwegian Army, addressing leadership incompetence in the South African National Defence Force, and the actions taken following a series of crises in the Australian Defence Force"--Foreword, page v.
