Reviews
It's written in a way that is accessible to those who want to use this knowledge to guide their everyday behaviors and for practitioners that want to use it design leadership programs. The book offers a thorough history of leadership theory and the data to support where leadership development initiatives have had success. This is a must read for human resource and leadership development practitioners to understand what we know and still are investigating around leadership.
The result of this emphasis on current trends in leadership research is that the evidence that Barling draws upon resonates with the current events and issues that are exemplified throughout the book. * Clive Fullagar, Professor, Dept of Psychological Sciences, Kansas State University Personnel Psychology *
