This book aims to develop a philosophy of leadership from the fiction of C.S. Lewis. Using such works as
The Chronicles of Narnia,
The Cosmic Trilogy, and
Till We Have Faces, the author focuses on the benefits of fiction for leadership philosophy, including the use of models for leadership from narrative worlds. Exploring topics such as agency theory, conflict, authentic leadership, and dark leadership, this book will offer researchers in HRM and leadership studies a fresh perspective of the fictional works of the foremost Christian apologist of the 20
th century.
