Leadership is one of the most studied concepts in the world today. Policy leadership is different from the more common notions of organizational leadership; policy leadership mobilizes attention to problematic conditions, and then forges agreement on appropriate policy responses among diverse, often competing groups and constituencies. Policy leadership is essentially interorganizational or transorganizational in nature, and thus follows different steps and requires different skills than contemporary definitions of organizational leadership and small group leadership. Three of the more common theories of organizational leadership are transformational leadership, visionary leadership, and charismatic leadership. Policy leadership is thus provided within a unique interorganizational web of political, economic, environmental, social, and technological concerns. It works in political and interorganizational contexts where authority is shared and power is disbursed in a community, region, and country.
