Publisher's Note In Leading Change, James O'Toole argues that outdated Machiavellian dictates of situational leadership are ultimately ineffective--and demonstrates instead that successful leadership is rooted in high moral purpose and consistent respect for followers.
One of America's most esteemed management thinkers offers a book that transcends how-to management primers, offering an unorthodox approach to leadership based on the lessons of history, moral and political philosophy, and the practical experience of men and women across cultures and circumstances.
Industry Reviews "...[F]ocuses on two problems facing leaders today: leadership style and resistance to change....Intriguing reading, this book has something for anyone grappling with the challenges of leadership." Reasoner
"A compelling book! Jim O'Toole argues convincingly that the complexity and turmoil of our time demands leadership that is right—not leadership that simply works." (Kermit Campbell, CEO, Herman Miller, Inc.)
