Jack Zenger and Joseph Folkman update their classic on the keys to strong, ethical, effective leadership.
Recommendation
In this thorough, third edition of their 2002 classic, leadership-development expert John H. “Jack” Zenger and psychometrician Joseph Folkman – who studies how to measure people’s knowledge, skills and abilities – use statistical analysis, extensive data and research-based judgment to present unique insights into leadership. Their initial book cataloged 20 leadership insights; this edition offers 33. Zender and Folkman offer advice derived from their observations about leadership and the core competencies leaders need, and they frame their research findings as actionable tips.
