Recommendation

Can a textbook be delightfully written? This one is. Authors Richard L. Hughes, Robert C. Ginnett, and Gordon J. Curphy explore every aspect of leadership and smoothly weave research conclusions into the narrative. Examples abound, from Colin Powell to Walt Disney. The authors are all psychologists who specialize in leadership issues. They have written conversationally and intelligently, using plenty of sidebar material (even famous cartoons) to bring their reporting to life. getAbstract.com recommends this classic (now in its third edition) to everyone interested in leadership.

Take-Aways

  • Leadership is not a position; it’s a process.
  • Leadership is both a science and an art.
  • Leadership is both rational and emotional.
