Abstract

In Chapter 4, we introduced two key frameworks that underpin our idea of performing leadership. One of these — enactment, narrative and audience — provides the overall structure for this section. The second — the notion that leadership is literally a performance (“is”) or that leadership is metaphorically a performance (“as”) — is the stepping off point for this and the next chapter. This framework draws on Schechner’s (2003) distinction between “is” performances and “as” performances. While the former specifically relates to actions associated with formal rituals, the latter may be applied to a much broader range of everyday interactions.
