But they're not widely studied...they're not at all studied. They're not written about. And yet they often change the world.""I certainly take the point of view that the lust to try to legitimize an oppressed group is a good thing. There are other lusts such as the lust for power, which is probably almost always not so wonderful because it implies power over someone.""Leaders who lust seem to have an energy, a life force, a zeal, and a dedication to a particular goal. And we, we look at them with a measure of awe."Dr. Kellerman's Website/Selected BooksWebsite: Barbara Kellerman New Book: The Enablers: How Team Trump Flunked the Pandemic and Failed AmericaBook: Leaders Who Lust: Power Money Sex Success Legitimacy LegacyBook: Professionalizing Leadership Book: Leadership: Essential Selections on Power, Authority, and Influence - Book: Followership Book: Bad Leadership Book: Leadership: Multidisciplinary Perspectives About The International Leadership Association (ILA)The ILA was created in 1999 to bring together professionals with a keen interest in the study, practice, and teaching of leadership.
