Dear Erwin, Thanks for thinking of me. I am going to pass the message
along to one of my Ph.D. Students, Mark Hoelscher, who is writing a paper
for my collegue, James G. (Jerry) Hunt on Stewardship. As you may know,
while I dabble in leadership (Book chapters/articles on Charismatic
leadership, Stratified Systems Theory, Competing Values, Upper Echelon
Theory, etc), Jerry, as Editor of Leadership Quarterly is fully immersed in
the subject. Jeery's email is:
ODJGH@TTACS.TTU.EDU. You might wish to
contact me directly as well.
Regards, Kim Boal
