An Integrative Approach to Leader Development Summary

An Integrative Approach to Leader Development: Connecting Adult Development, Identity, and Expertise by David V. Day

This book is a beginning, a first step, in taking leader development in organizations beyond conventional wisdom toward a scientifically sound research-based set of principles and practices. The authors looked beyond their own academic disciplines to bring to bear accumulated wisdom from researchers who have developed well-established and accepted theoretical perspectives on adult development processes in general, then wove in the ideas that have emerged in more targeted research on adult education, development of cognitive skills, identity development, self-regulation, moral and ethical development, and related topics. The authors present an integrative theory that provides a coherent framework for describing an understanding how leader development takes place.

An Integrative Approach to Leader Development Reviews

The topic of leadership development is both timely and important, and the theoretical directions the authors provide are a new contribution to the field. I really appreciated the new areas the authors brought together from different fields: literature on adult development with literature on morality and ethics with literature on epistemic cognition- a fascinating and informative integration - Mary Uhl-Bien, University of Nebraska, Lincoln

Mindful of the fragmented approaches to developing leaders and leadership, these authors have thoughtfully integrated fields of inquiry (cognitive, social, organizational, developmental and organizational psychology, identity theory, competency/behavior) in one comprehensive well-documented book. - Laura Santana, Center for Creative Leadership in Latin America, Europe, US, and Middle East

Many books on leadership have one or two chapters that reflect state-of-the-art-thinking applied to a practical aspect of leadership. However, in this book, every chapter reflects the very highest levels of scholarship. -Robert G. Lord, University of Akron
