A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"At a time when words like ′inspiration′ or ′spirit′ are sometimes used with embarrassment, the authors restore those lofty concepts to their rightful place at the core of successful business.′′ (Norman Lear, chairman and CEO, Act III Communications)

"A vital resource for all leaders and managers preparing themselves for the demands of 21st century leadership." (Kathryn E. Johnson, president and CEO, The Healthcare Forum)

"I not only enjoyed it... found myself constantly nodding and saying to myself, ′That′s right! That′s how it′s done! That′s what it feels like!′ You certainly captured the essence of what I′ve found is at the heart of transforming leadership.′′ (Robert Haas, chairman and CEO, Levi Strauss & Co.)

"The Leadership Challenge changed the direction of Motorola Semiconductor′s World Marketing Organization." (Charles E. Thompson, senior vice president, director world marketing, Semiconductor Products Sector, Motorola Inc.)

"Kouzes and Posner demonstrate that when ordinary business people aspire to extraordinary achievements they can expand the realm of what′s possible.′′ (Kathy Meyer, executive director, The Business Enterprise Trust)

"The Leadership Challenge is a book that should be read and worked through by every member of every organization. It makes real and accessible the practices of leadership. If it is not in the workplace of all your people you are missing the plot." (David Clancy, manager, Culture Development, Westpac Banking Corporation)

"This book has heart. . . . I highly recommended The Leadership Challenge in 1987. I do so even more in 1995.′′ (from the foreword by Tom Peters)

Présentation de l'éditeur

Completely revised and updated

I not only enjoyed it...I found myself constantly nodding and saying to myself, ′That′s right! That′s how it′s done! That′s what it feels like!′ You certainly captured the essence of what I′ve found is at the heart of transforming leadership.
–– Robert D. Haas, chairman and CEO, Levi Strauss & Co.

The leadership book that outshines them all, updated for today′s new business realities. With an expanded research base of 60,000 leaders, this second edition captures the continuing interest in leadership as a critical aspect of human organizations. It offers a broader scope of leaders in every industry and walk of life, including the education and nonprofit fields, and examines the era′s hottest issues –– the new cynicism, the electronic global village, evolving employee–employer relationships –– in keeping pace with our ever–changing world. The classic five–point guide to better leadership, however, remains as useful as ever.
