Thanks for the added insight. I guess I have two follow up questions to that. 1) Is anyone who does have the context able to weigh in? From my own digging I'm not seeing a lot of agreed upon definitions of "leadership emergency theory". I found one paper [1] which I read the abstract of. It again, like the OP, seems to talk about how "leaders emerge in teams that lack a hierarchical structure". From my experience this doesn't seem incredibly useful given all managers/leaders I've seen have been appointed by someone else. It's not some subconscious, democratic process where they're chosen by the group. 2) Kind of meta, but did the writer of the article do the research that seems necessary for this? And if not is this acceptable, given that I can only assume numerous people will take this at face value and may even make organizational changes as a result?
