This book offers a case-study approach to stakeholder theory that moves beyond theoretical analysis to the applied. As stakeholder theory has moved into the mainstream of management thinking in business ethics and a number of the management disciplines, there is an increasing need to explore the subtleties of stakeholder engagement via examples from practice. The case studies in this volume explore a number of aspects of the idea of stakeholder engagement, via the method of clinical case studies. Edited by leading scholars in the field of business ethics and stakeholder theory, this text affords a solid grounding in theory, brought to new levels of applied understanding of stakeholder engagement.

Stakeholder Engagement: Clinical Research Cases

Matthias Mölleney

In modern organisations, traditional leadership concepts often fall short because they focus on the relationship between superiors and employees. The key advantage of these organisations, however, lies in the agility of the teams and the ability of their members to cooperate. An important part of current leadership research, which deals with multidimensional followership, also goes in this direction. In addition to the theoretical principles, the book offers, above all, a very concrete guideline with logically structured steps and many examples as to how this concept of leadership can be applied in practice. It is, in the truest sense of the word, a workbook. "Beyond Leadership" is aimed at executives of all levels and industries as well as professionals in organisational and human resources development and those responsible for organising leadership work in clubs and other militia organisations.
