Description
Book SynopsisMany problems that plague modern American society, including disappearance of community, decaying inner cities, racial tensions, environmental degradation, declining civic engagement, and the increasing ineffectiveness of government, to name a few, are in many respects problems of leadership.
Trade ReviewThis is an excellent book. I recommend it highly to leadership practictioners, faculty, students, and any person who shares an interest in non-hierarchical leadership. It is a volume you will revisit time and again whether you are wrestling with a new concept, preparing a presentation, planning a change process. I guarantee that within short order our edition . . . will bear the scars of ample use. That can only mean good things for the future of non-hierarchical leadership development. * Concepts & Connections: Teaching Leadership *
One of the key strengths of this book is the inclusion of student voices. Each of the four sections opens with a quote or reflection from one or more students and the inclusion of student voices in many of the chapters adds much to the presentation of the material. . . . [P]racticing student affairs professionals developing the next generation of student leaders may find this to be a useful resource. * Journal of College Student Development *
