Definition
- In the last half-century's history of ideas, few concepts have had stronger and more popular currency among both the general public and scholarly community than “leadership.” In both of these domains, the contemporary dominant conception of leadership is “exceptionalism.” The antecedents of exceptionalism were evident in the now discredited “great man” theory of history and in the trait theory of leadership, which prevailed until about the late 1940s. Leadership by Exception Exceptionalism reemerged during the early-1980s with the gradual supplanting of command-and-control line managerialism by rhetorics of integration and control achieved through the management of culture.
