Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary
This thought-provoking Research Agenda explores the evolving field of positive leadership through the lens of dynamic balancing, the method of managing opposing forces to attain organizational or societal goals. Renowned experts in the field present fresh perspectives on how positive leadership functions across areas including coaching, cultural diversity, and organizational design.
Blending insights from multiple disciplines, authors provide a rich understanding of leadership that acknowledges its strengths and challenges. They present a novel conceptualization of dynamic balancing as a force that embraces the Yin and Yang of organizational elements. Chapters discuss empirical investigations of leadership, how a balancing approach can be utilized, and the importance of inclusive leadership. Ultimately, contributors define positive leadership as the successful interweaving of paradoxical forces to generate profitable business outcomes.
Crafting an explicit agenda for future research alongside practical knowledge, this book is an essential resource for scholars and students of leadership development, human resource management, and organizational behavior. It is also invaluable to HR professionals and those in management.

‘The logical mind is wedded to either-or categories; it is not prone to understand or generate patterns of excellence. This groundbreaking book resolves a mystery that has long challenged even the most serious students of leadership.’
