 Research Mostly Practical Experience Zero
I read this book for class. I got an A in the class but not because of the book. It is mostly useless research into leadership factors that i learned in the military. I had hoped it would bring some new light to the topic of leadership but he did not even talk about executive nor effective presidential leadership. I am in the class for political reasons and i expected more case studies on famous world leaders. Instead he acts like researchers are the real leaders which i only part true in academia. It had many practical exercises in the book that we had done in previous classes and this is hard to emulate without classmates. To tell you what i really thought of it i sold it back for a paldry $36. I have never had a non technology or law book that cost $110. It was definitely not worth the money paid and i don't know how they can ask for that much. It is not a reference book nor a CRC handbook of mgt. Way to expensive. I know the boys at the Naval Academy don't use this book and we should all be happy about that.
 The best leadership book...
This book summarizes all the leadership literature perfectly. Researchers should consider this book when they do research on leadership.
 Lots of great info...
...but reads like a VCR manual. This was required reading for a management course at my college. Whenever there was a way around reading, I took it. I'm certain that my fellow students felt similarly. Sorry Mr. Yukl.
Good for everyone
I consider that this book was very helpful in the real life. It shows examples for all the theory that involves in each chapter. I am sure that professionals in organizations will learn very much from this reading.
Good Amazoner!
Didn't respond to email but did send the book and I'm very happy with the book! I would definitely recommend! Thank you!
