Person-Centered Leadership: An American Approach to Participatory Management
Jeanne M. Plas
This book demonstrates that the recent participatory management failures are the result of a lack of appreciation for the cultural role of rugged individualism, and offers an alternative, person-centred leadership which puts the individual at the very centre of the management approach. The author presents effective, psychology-based, person-centred management techniques through the use of examples and cases, many of them drawn from her own work with successful US businesses. Topics include: an historical overview of the relationship of the individual to the corporation; the response of new leaders to the problem of rapid technological and social change; examples of a variety of person-centred leadership approaches that fit different companies and different managerial styles; and specific strategies that leaders and managers can use.
