Why yes, I AM using my gradschool reading to add to my goodreads 2016 reading challenge.
(Also, I really enjoyed this book, and learned a whole lot about the basics of leadership by reading and responding to this text.)

Written with the objective to "bridge the gap between the often simplistic approaches to leadership and the more theoretical approaches". Has many popular leadership theories, how to apply them in the real world, case studies, chapters on "Culture and Leadership" and "Women and Leadership", and plenty of up-to-date (as of 2007) research and findings in the leadership field.

Recommended for anyone who is going into a role with any type of leadership required.

L-O-N-G book. Thoroughly written. It is nice to have all of this information in 1 book. All chapters follow the same structure, which is quite valuable for absorbing all of this information. It is not a Christian book, but has many Christian insights. The chapter for Women in Leadership is poorly written. The conclusions drawn are not well supported with evidence.

Leadership: there are competencies to be learned, beliefs to be understood and individual attributes to be developed.

The landscape of leadership is evolving as leaders are being challenged to both hear and be heard from diverse members of their organizations.… (meer)
