How leaders navigate dysfunctional interdependency
In this study, we explore why and how leaders deploy political behaviour to overcome dysfunctional interdependency in public organizations. Employing grounded theory methodology and analyzing interview data from managers of public hospitals in Ghana, we uncover how structural and emotional factors create dysfunctional interdependency and how managers use trans-spherical leadership – an approach that conceives effective leadership as orchestrating…

Drawing on a framework that integrates discursive practices and relationalism, we explore the relevance of relational ties for the cross-state mobility of naturalised third-country nationals (NTCNs) within the European Union, examining how relational ties facilitate their mobility to the UK. Our data derive from in-depth interviews with NTCNs of West African origin living and working in the UK. Emphasising how co-ethnic diaspora-based networks pr…

By so doing, it highlights how leadership meanings from this context differ from Anglo-centric thinking and writings. Key to this contribution is an unravelling of ways in which historical cultural hegemonies impose parti…
