Last week, in Module 3, an introduction to Foucault’s studies of discourse (as cited in Hook, 2001) [recommended reading] and Western’s (2013) [required reading] explanation of The Four Discourses of Leadership provided a foundation on which to deepen understanding of Controller Leadership, Therapist Leadership, Messiah Leadership, and Eco-Leadership Discourse.

Our discussion this week expands upon Western’s exploration of the Four Discourses and provides an opportunity to collaborate and expand our collective knowledge.
