Leadership at the Crossroads (2006), a volume in

Prior to 2005, Building
Leadership Bridges (2001-2004) was an annual print publication of the International
Leadership Association which gathered the keynotes and a selection of
peer-reviewed and edited conference papers from the previous year's conference.
These exciting books offers the latest perspectives on leadership from leadership
scholars, educators, professionals, public servants, and others.
Eds. Nancy S. Huber and J. Thomas Wren (International
Leadership Association, 2004)
Three keynote speakers [from ILA 2003 in Guadalajara] offer
perspectives from their presentations. Leadership scholar Joanne Ciulla
examines multidisciplinary approaches to ethics in leadership with a focus on
the challenge of nepotism to ethical and competent leadership; community leader
Luz Lajous Vargas speaks poignantly about working locally and internationally on
global issues of concern to women and their families; and business leader Arjan
Overwater recounts the journey of leadership development for Unilever's top
management team.
Although it is impossible to incorporate a large number of the
many thoughtful and relevant presentations from the conference, we hope you
enjoy the pieces that are included here. For example, you can read about
"Leadership in Higher Education Institutions in Latin America" and compare it to
"Strengths-Based Leadership Development in Lithuania." Or consider
"Leading for the Common Good in a Shared-Power World" alongside "Navigating
Organizational Change." -- Excerpt from Introduction

"Each year the International Leadership
Association (ILA) grows and evolves, displaying creative and exciting
new ideas. This publication is evidence of this growth. It is
our hope that it will make a powerful impact on leadership theory
and practice worldwide. It reflects the finest work of scholars
and practitioners who participated in the conference held in Miami,
Florida, in November 2001.
This monograph contains Meg Wheatley's keynote address and other papers that
were of particular interest to both scholars and practitioners.
The Miami conference
was held just two months after the tragic events of September
11. The attack on the World Trade Center, where citizens from
over sixty countries lost their lives, and the continuing conflict
in many places around the world touch us all. These past and present
global events serve as a critical reminder of the importance of
the work that we all do in the study and practice of leadership--international
leadership-- is all the more important during these uncertain times.
The conference and this resulting publication give us the opportunity
to contribute to the body of knowledge and practice of leadership
and to ultimately influence global leadership."

Building Leadership Bridges, 2001 is evidence of ILA's growth
and maturity, and it is our hope that it will make a powerful

work of scholars and practitioners who participated in the ILA
conference held in Toronto, Canada, in November 2000. In it, you'll
find the keynote addresses and several other papers that were
of particular interest to both scholars and practitioners. We
sought to create a mix- a meeting of the minds between those who
study leadership and those who practice it."
