Resumen
VILLORIA, Manuel y IGLESIAS, Ángel. Leadership in public management: Some theoretical and methodological considerations. Innovar [online]. 2011, vol.21, n.42, pp.175-189. ISSN 0121-5051.
Despite its pertinence in administrative sciences, leadership in public management is still ill conceptualized. In this context, the authors propose an analytical framework to reconsider the study of public leadership. To explore this issue they begin by stating the difference between public and private management and look at the specifics of public management's objectives. Then, they try to develop a comprehensive model to understand the variety of situations in public leadership; a model based on a broader perspective rather that on a managerial one. In particular, they defend the idea that different types of leadership are required depending on the level of responsibility of the managers and other aggregate variables such as the level of institutionalization and power of the public organization where the managers work.
