Recenzje

"...if I were teaching a graduate or advanced undergraduate course on leadership I would certainly use this as core reading. And if I were a graduate student preparing for prelims, I would use this book as my main coverage of the leadership area. Whether or not one buys into Chemers's particular leadership theory, this book covers so much ground and covers it so well that it should become a benchmark work for future leadership studies."
