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.

Take-Aways

  • Leadership is a complex, often mystifying area of study with numerous variables, systems and unknown factors.
  • Nineteen core competencies distinguish superior leaders.  
  • Evaluate leaders through the prism of their subordinates’ actions and perspectives.
