After hearing the rave reviews my friend had given this, I couldn't resist the temptation to read it myself. All I can say is WOW! I started reading before bed one night and became so enthralled that I couldn't put it down. I literally read through the night until I reached what was the most satisfying climax to the unpredictable twists and turns the author led me through. This was an absolute page turner! Five stars is not enough! Do yourself a favor and pick this tome up and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime!

Very easy-to-read for a theory textbook. The authors offer lots of real-world examples and helpful charts.

A lot of great information, but a read that requires a great deal of thought. Must take your time.

It is your typical textbook. The scenarios at the end of each chapter provided for good discussion within the leadership class that I took.

Your typical textbook. Can be a little dense at times but the information seems to be applicable and offers a strong theoretical and well researched base for the work.
