Book Synopsis The Art and Science of Heroism and Heroic Leadership by : Scott T. Allison
Download or read book The Art and Science of Heroism and Heroic Leadership written by Scott T. Allison and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heroism is a rich, elusive phenomenon. Any adequate understanding of heroic behavior requires a new type of scholarly imagination, one that taps into human artistic sensibilities as much as it does the rigors of scientific inquiry. In an important sense, we invoke a meta-version of the call to heroic imagination by Franco, Blau, and Zimbardo (2011), who describe such imagination “as a mind-set” and “a collection of attitudes” (p. 13) that can steer everyday people toward heroic achievement. This eBook also merges our understanding of heroism with heroic leadership, demonstrating that heroic leadership applies the principles of heroism in moving groups toward noble collective goals. This eBook represents an effort by a distinguished group of authors to unleash their own creative mindsets, attitudes, and imaginations in their scholarship on heroism and heroic leadership.
