Exploring the Art of Leadership -- The Interplay of Space, Time, and Energy -- Understanding the Rhythms of Human Interaction -- Communicating in Images, Symbols, and Metaphors -- Improvising with Creativity and Spontaneity -- Leading from Within -- Learning the Art of Leadership.
Most successful leaders know that leadership is an art, not a science. They recognize that beyond all the sophisticated systems and theories, the strategies and tactics, leadership is ultimately about intangible things such as timing, intuition, and passion. This book shows how successful leaders can master the artistic aspects of their work. It guides readers to the ways that the art of leadership can be practiced and learned. The Dance of Leadership explores the art of leadership by examining the perspectives, training, and insights of artists, most particularly in the fields of music and dance. The authors look at how these people learn their craft, practice their skills, and attain mastery of their art. Then they adapt these lessons from the arts to the experiences of successful leaders in all fields.
