Description
This revised text offers a presentation of leadership set on a strengthened framework for leadership development. It brings the current practices of today's - and tomorrow's - leaders in an era when leadership has become everyone's business. Based on a workshop developed by James Kouzes and Barry Posner and presented, tested, and refined since the early-1980s, this edition is suitable for both individual and group use.
