Summary/Abstract: Land consolidation (LC) is a complex process conducted to rearrange the land property, or more precisely, rearranging the parcel shape and position including optimization of roads and irrigation systems. LC includes a lot of activities provided in a very sensitive and unpredictable environment because it deals with land property and land owners (farmers) who could behave in concordance with their perception of land property value and their value system. Bearing in mind the long period of land consolidation projects, the land owners could change their initial opinion formed at the beginning of land consolidation projects’ realization. All these facts additionally increase the complexity of the land consolidation process. The lack of literature in the domain of leadership and management during the land consolidation process inspired authors to open discussion about that issue.
