Responsible Leadership, 2nd Edition, edited by Nicola Pless and Thomas Maak, investigates how leaders operate in a world of contested values. Published by Routledge, the volume examines leadership responsibilities that extend beyond direct reports to a wide spectrum of internal and external stakeholders.

The collection explores the ethical and relational dimensions of organizational direction alongside cross-cultural dynamics and practical leadership development. Chapters address how leaders navigate moral decisions, reconcile cultural dilemmas, and engage in cross-sector partnerships.

Intended for both scholars and practitioners, this 2022 volume pairs academic research with organizational practice. For this edition, the editors introduced new contributions examining inclusive leadership, organizational purpose, virtuous leadership, and responsible leadership measurement.
