Reviews
- 'I appreciate the amount and application of leadership theories. This book contains the best balance between theory and practice, and ties them together nicely.'
- 'The content is comprehensive and well-organized. I believe the topics are organized in a nice 'stair-stepping' method so that each topic builds upon the previous. The first several chapters dealing with the 'individual' as a leader are clear and concise. The chapters take an in-depth look at leaders and what it entails to be a leader�but it is done in an easy-to-read manner.'

I thought this book was ok. It seemed backward to the was the classes where done and it seemed to repeat itself a great deal. Some of the info. was very narrow minded in the sense of 'really this not how things should be done'. But it is a text book after all. I think if you read if , you should be careful not to read it unless you are ready for a nap. It is one of those types of books. Good luck with it.
