In studying public leadership we are interested in the use of the voice to motivate, inspire, and organise public action. The focus is the leadership that stimulates co-ordinated response to the problems that the public accepts. Public leadership pulls a group of people (a society) together and co-ordinates their response to their world. This book presents topical research in the study of public leadership, including police organisation and leadership; brand leadership in a public sector context; leadership compensation in subsidiaries; exploring the public leadership performance of faith-based healthcare organisation; and educational leadership.
