Drawing on psychoanalysis and structuralist film studies, this paper explores leadership emergence as a mythic structure within the four films, arguing that these myths are structured around a struggle of a young novice against an evil power figure, and the overcoming of this figure through a process of self-discovery and maturation. Central themes include the relations between self-realization of leaders and the social harmony, the battle with evil leaders as an ego-struggle, and exile and journey as a precursor to mature leadership competence. The paper attempts to show how, following Miendl et al (1985) leadership myths often conflate individual psychological well-being with social well-being, and adds to this perspective that such a conflation may be key to understanding leadership myths as projections of internal psychological dynamics. More generally, it is argued that treating popular culture such as animated allegories as contemporary myth offers scholars a view into popular conceptions of leadership, possible illuminating the relationships between leadership and social organization.36 p.DigitalInglêsAnimating Leadership: Crisis and Renewal of Governance in 4 Mythic Narrativesworking paperLeadershipPopular CultureOrganizational MythsLeadership and the MediaBEWP 039/2008
