Abstract

While scholarly interest in artful perspectives of leadership seems to be on the rise, research development of these concepts is still at a nascent stage. As a result, there have been calls for more examinations of artistic leaders and further development of aesthetic leadership constructs. A review of the extant literature, however, reveals no broad conceptual framework for leading aesthetically. In the attempt to fill this gap, grounded in emerging theories of leadership as art, we examined the historical case of the San Antonio Conservation Society and its prominent artist-leaders, Emily Edwards and Rena Maverick Green, to represent a hermeneutic approach to authentic aesthetic leadership.
