This is a great textbook that provides the foundational theories of leadership. The book achieves a critical balance of providing scholarly research and practitioner perspectives. Case studies, class activities and leadership surveys provide an integrative perspective of individual, team and organizational leadership styles and practices -- Meera Alagaraja What a great resource!Great book - Great case studies for the students - Easy to use. My students fine this book very sharpened and readable. I describe this bookas a pinch of background of what leadership is.
