Distributed leadership and the visibility/invisibility paradox in on-line communities
This is the first study in which a paradox of leadership visibility/invisibility is investigated regarding distributed leadership in online communities. Data collected from three communities were analysed using a pattern-matching process, from which a paradoxical relationship between leadership visibility/invisibility emerged in mixed methods conversational analysis of asynchronous interaction in online polylogues, contributing to contemporary global insights into e-leadership. The research led to a special e-Leadership edition of the British Journal of Educational Technology (2013), with Jameson as main guest editor, and Jameson’s invited speech alongside Prof Diana Laurillard at the Wiley-BJET BERA 2012 seminar Redefining the Field of Educational Technology.
