Description Leadership is viewed as essential to good governance practice, yet what is our understanding of its impact on innovations and failures in development at the local government level? While a number of theories of leadership exist to analyze the performance of leaders in the private sector, these theories are yet to be used to systematically analyze political leaders at a local government level in developing nations. This article suggests that the full-range framework for leadership is a useful tool to analyze political leadership and provide insight into whether there is a distinctive leadership style or combination of styles that are needed for effective leadership in local government. It reviews relevant leadership literature and provides examples of local government leaders from the Philippines and Indonesia that would benefit from analysis using the full range framework.
