Research:
Our goal for this integrative review is to examine the ways in which the field of leadership is evolving and the consequences of its evolutionary path for the models, methods, and populations examined. For example, at the outset of the field of leadership, the primary focus was on studying an individual leader, who was most likely a male working in some large privatesector organization. Today, the field of leadership focuses not only on the leader, but also on followers, peers, supervisors, work setting/context, and culture, including a much broader array of individuals representing the entire spectrum of diversity, public, private, and not-for-profit organizations, and increasingly over the past 20 years, samples of populations from nations around the globe.
Issues:
1. More future research in leadership will be mixed methods. 2. Determining the causal mechanisms that link leadership to outcomes will be a priority. 3. Assessing and developing leadership using evidence-based strategies will be a target focus. 4. Examining strategic leadership as a process and person will be an evolving area of theory and research.
Conclusion:
The leadership field over the past decade has made tremendous progress in uncovering some of the enduring mysteries associated with leadership. These include whether leaders are born or made, how followers affect how successful leaders can be, how some charismatic leaders build up societies and others destroy them, as well as what impact leading through technology
has on individual and collective performance. The period that leadership theory and research will enter over the next decade is indeed one of the most exciting in the history of this planet.
