This book develops a new paradigm in the field of leadership studies, referred to as the leadershipaspractice (LAP) movement. Its essence is its conception of leadership as occurring as a practice rather than residing in the traits or behaviours of particular individuals. A practice is a coordinative effort among participants who choose through their own rules to achieve a distinctive outcome. It also tends to encompass routines as well as problemsolving or coping skills, often tacit, that are shared by a community. Accordingly, leadershipaspractice is less about what one person thinks or does and more about what people may accomplish together. It is thus concerned with how leadership emerges and unfolds through daytoday experience. The social and material contingencies impacting the leadership constellation the people who are effecting leadership at any given time do not reside outside of leadership but are very much embedded within it. To find leadership, then, we must look to the practice within which it is occurring.The leadershipaspractice approach resonates with a number of closely related traditions, such as collective, shared, distributed, and relational leadership, that converge on leadership processes. These approaches share a line of inquiry that acknowledges leadership as a social phenomenon. The new focus opens up a plethora of research opportunities encouraging the study of social processes beyond influence, such as intersubjective agency, shared sensemaking, dialogue, and coconstruction of responsibilities.
