Abstract

This essay focuses on discursive approaches to leading as opposed to leadership psychology by centering on leading’s linguistic and interactional accomplishment. It presents the primary task of leading as the management of meaning and the coordination of networks of human and nonhuman actants, giving attention to issues regarding framing, sense making, temporal sequencing, materiality, and hybrid forms of agency. Future research should explore how leadership studies can integrate quantitative and qualitative linguistic analysis, facilitate uptake of theory and research on leading by leadership practitioners, and take seriously the role of ethics and morality within leading practices. The chapter begins by distinguishing leading discursively from leadership psychology and unpacking key linguistic practices as well as analytical choices and tools that academic scholars and leadership practitioners may engage when analyzing leadership interaction, and concludes by examining future research directions
