A while ago I sent out a request for courses/articles on interdisciplinary leadership. The contributions are summarized below. I would like to thank Daniel Miller, J. Lee Whittington, Cynthia Stevens, Ronald Piccolo, Stacie Chappell, Michael Ryan, Brian Spisak and Marc Anderson for their responses.
Books:

There were over 100 articles listed on the various syllabi, too many to list; some other recommendations that are less business-specific are:
