Clear, concise and has cases that can be used as a vehicle for understanding leadership complexities and concepts.
I used Effective Leadership for the first time this year. I was looking for a reader-friendly leadership text based in research, but with all the practical tools such as cases and self-assessments. I appreciated the obvious effort that went into writing this book with a clear audience (advanced undergraduates and MBAs) in mind. Is is very current and replete with not only the latest research but also with the most current events in business. I also appreciated the heavier emphasis on newer leadership research and the focus on emotions in the leadership process. This is an excellent text with plenty of well-devised instructor resources.
This a very comprehensive book and very well written. The case studies throughout are an excellent addition.
This a a useful text that provides an overview of the leadership skills needed to be successful in various organizations. We are considering using it in the Fall 2015 semester. Again, this is a very useful text and provides excellent information for leadership and management students.
A comprehensive, engaging and exciting book that utilizes a critical approach to understanding leadership
This book promotes some thought provoking ideas to support effective leadership within a team. I have found some useful stratergies that I have adopted and used within my team.
This book is appropriate for a Leadership capstone course, which I will be instructing next year.
Excellent book, and would be a fab choice for a MBA level course!
