Final Call for Chapters - LEADING WITH SPIRIT, PRESENCE AND AUTHENTICITY

  • 1.  Final Call for Chapters - LEADING WITH SPIRIT, PRESENCE AND AUTHENTICITY

    Posted 06-01-2013 15:18

    Dear colleagues,

    The International Leadership Association invites you to submit your work on the theme, Leading with Spirit, Presence, and Authenticity for its annual volume in the Building Leadership Bridges series.  Read the full call on the ILA website at http://www.ila-net.org/Publications/BLB/callforsubmissions.htm and note that we particularly seek  contributions on leadership and spirituality across cultures, around the world.

    The volume explores the importance of cultivating oneself with regard to leadership and seeks to enable readers to appreciate the range of approaches that exist, how they are used, and their impacts. This includes the contribution of spirituality (in all of its varied forms and expressions), as well as the arts and other parts of life that contribute to people's capacity to bring their whole self to their leadership in ways that help them withstand the pressures and challenges of leadership in today's complex global environment.

    As editor, I welcome previously unpublished submissions that explore the theme of Leading with Spirit, Presence, and Authenticity from diverse perspectives, disciplines, cultures, and sectors. Submissions should strengthen ties between those who practice and those who study leadership, so as to foster effective leadership. Submissions will be considered in five areas.
    • Spirituality and leadership across cultures
    • Mindfulness, presence, and authenticity
    • Ethical dilemmas
    • Leadership presence and gender
    • Boundary crossing, which includes non-traditional creative approaches.
    See more details in the call!

    Send submissions electronically as a WORD DOCUMENT to ILA c/o Debra DeRuyver at dderuyver@ila-net.org by July 1, 2013.
