Leadership Scholarship
Refereed Paper
2011 Chair: Jonathan Gosling (Jonathan.Gosling@exeter.ac.uk)
Globally, we are using 1.5 planet's worth
of resources every year. That is an average figure - everyone
coming to this conference will, by definition, be living
lifestyles that assume between and 3 and 5 planets. Many
others now consuming a fraction of these resources will
either remain in comparative poverty, or will demand a fairer
share. We may all be living in very different worlds, in
terms of our belief systems, our priorities, our personal
and political choices. But the basic fact that we share
one gorgeous but bounded planet means that we cannot possibly
continue with 'business as usual'. Leaders in every sphere
of activity, all over the world, will be crucial in helping
us to make radical transitions in our economic practices,
hopefully while maintaining reasonably civilised behaviour.
This conference and the proposal submissions to the All-Conference
Theme Track will contribute to aligning political, business,
educational, social and public leadership to this realisation.
Areas of particular interest include, but
are not limited to:
- Purposes
- Resources
- Belief systems

- Public Leadership
- Public policy
- Comparative poverty
- Fairness
- Social Justice
- Multiple Worlds
- Green economy
- Transitions to sustainable practices

Leadership Studies continues to be an expanding fruitful area of inquiry and the Leadership Scholarship Track provides a dynamic forum for scholars from across sectors and at various stages of their career, to present their papers, panels, and other presentation formats, and to critically interact with one another to further our understanding of leadership. The Track encourages the submission of high-quality scholarly proposals on leadership. Empirical and/or theoretical scholarship from any methodological approach is welcomed.
Authors are also encouraged to submit papers and presentations that raise any other issues with regard to leadership scholarship and research.
