Sport management leadership research has predominantly focused on leadership behaviours, particularly transformative leadership, without fully acknowledging the complex, multifaceted nature of leadership within the sports context. This perspective overlooks the reality that sports leaders operate within complex organizations and varied contexts that significantly influence their behaviours. Leadership in sports demands core capabilities in decision-making, communication, and strategic thinking, and a mindset that influences perception, decision-making, and behaviour. Consequently, a singular focus on transformative leadership may undervalue the importance of other attributes. This paper thus argues for a comprehensive leadership framework that integrates behaviours, roles, capabilities, and mindset, and draws insights from business management. By proposing this framework organized across four domains-Context, Roles, Capabilities, and Mindset-this paper aims to foster a deeper understanding of sports leadership dynamics, highlighting the necessity of a holistic approach that considers the interconnectedness of these elements.
体育管理领导力研究主要聚焦于领导行为，尤其是变革型领导，却未充分认识到体育领域中领导力的复杂多面性。这种观点忽视了体育领导者在复杂组织和多样环境中运作这一现实，而这些组织和环境会显著影响他们的行为。体育领域的领导力需要决策、沟通和战略思维等核心能力，以及一种能影响认知、决策和行为的思维模式。因此，单一关注变革型领导可能会低估其他特质的重要性。本文因而主张建立一个综合的领导力框架，该框架整合行为、角色、能力和思维模式，并借鉴企业管理的见解。通过提出这个涵盖四个领域——背景、角色、能力和思维模式——的框架，本文旨在促进对体育领导力动态的更深入理解，强调采用整体方法的必要性，这种方法要考虑到这些要素的相互关联性。
