Synopsis

Snapshots of Great Leadership describes leaders who have either accomplished amazing feats or brought destruction. Although the goals of these individuals were often quite different, the leadership processes they used were frequently similar. The opening chapter explains the latest theories of leadership. Each leader snapshot adds an important "reality check" to the theories and models described in most introductory leadership textbooks, making this a key text for students taking leadership courses. This new edition features additional women and international leaders, a new "You Decide" section, and a Conclusion that clarifies the differences between good and bad leaders.

Review:

"In Snapshots of Great Leadership 2e, Jon Howell and Isaac Wanasika provide very clear syntheses of leadership theories and the matrix they provide of how good and bad leadership relates to specific theories is invaluable. This text could effectively be used as a primary or secondary text in teaching leadership. In short, it is an excellent resource that is both substantive and user-friendly." - Peter G.
