| Abstract | Leadership theories traditionally adopt a micro-level approach to examine how a single leader takes charge and influences the followers through a particular leadership style (i.e. “heroic leadership”). This model might not be adequate in the contemporary business world, where leadership is often distributed with multiple leaders collaborating together. Distributed leaders resemble partners in a strategic alliance. Therefore, leadership studies can benefit from macrolevel analyses of strategic alliance. Extending from the distributedleadership and process models, we introduce the concept of alliance leadership as a coordinated effort among a network of leaders working toward a common goal. Propositions on alliance leadership are formulated based on concepts borrowed from strategic alliances. Implications of a multi-level approach towards leadership are discussed |
