Leadership emergence is an inherently dynamic process whereby certain individuals come to be seen as leaders by others, some of whom will choose to follow them. The circumstances under which leadership emergence occurs depend on the persons involved, their interactions, and the context. Yet leadership research has too often viewed leadership emergence from a static and entity perspective, where some individuals are assumed to have qualities that predispose them to lead, without explaining how and why emergence occurs. Alternatively, we apply a typology that examines leadership emergence across levels of analysis (event, individual, dyadic, group, and organizational) and forms of emergence (global, compositional, and compilational). We examine representative theories of leadership emergence at the intersections of these considerations to demonstrate the utility of adopting a multilevel and dynamic perspective. Additionally, we offer recommendations for applying this typology to advance future theory and research into leadership emergence.

领导力涌现：通过考虑分析水平和涌现形式来回答“如何”和“为什么”问题

领导力涌现是一个本质上动态的过程，某些人逐渐被其他人视为领导者，其中一些人会选择追随他们。领导力涌现的情况取决于所涉及的人员、他们的互动和背景。然而，领导力研究常常从静态和实体的角度来看待领导力的涌现，其中一些人被认为具有使他们倾向于领导的品质，而没有解释涌现是如何以及为何发生的。或者，我们应用一种类型学来检查跨分析层次（事件、个人、二元、群体和组织）和涌现形式（全局、组合和汇编）的领导力涌现。我们在这些考虑的交叉点上研究了领导力涌现的代表性理论，以证明采用多层次和动态视角的效用。此外，我们还提供了应用这种类型学来推进未来领导力涌现理论和研究的建议。
