Abstract:Leadership cannot be abstracted from the organizational processes of which it is a part. The study of leadership is the study of the processes in which flexible social order is negotiated and practiced so as to protect and promote the values and interests in which it is grounded. The skills of leadership are characteristic of these processes because if they are at a low level, the social order will be unlikely to survive long. Similarly, to the extent that organizing processes reflect high levels of these skills, the values and interests of the social order are likely to be protected and promoted. If particular participants make significant contributions, leaders can make important contributions to skillful organizing.
