ABSTRACT
As we have repeatedly made clear, Network Leadership is neither an entirely new concept nor does it stand apart from theories of leadership that have gone before; a fact that is made abundantly clear from the multiple references in the table to the leadership practices of convening power and leading beyond authority. What the literature of leadership has perhaps paid less attention to is the importance of the key supporting elements of understanding leadership in context and the energy and resilience required to catalyse and maintain action within any social system.
