Charisma and Leadership in Organizations

Charisma and Leadership in Organizations by Alan Bryman

This book explores the concept of charisma in relation to management issues as well as to leadership. First, theoretical perspectives are presented on the nature of the charisma, and research findings based on the study of leadership in religious cults are examined. Next, the related concepts of charisma and transformational leadership are studied in relation to business and public organizations. Case studies follow.
