Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership

Resource Summary

Applying a cognitive lens to leadership, Howard Gardner identifies crucial but hitherto neglected components: the mind of the leader and the minds of his or her followers. Effective leaders create new stories that wrestle successfully with stories that already populate the minds of their followers. Gardner imposes his highly original framework on a wide spectrum of leaders that ranges from political, business, and military leaders to those individuals who provide leadership in the arts, sciences, and professions.
