A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

This series of guidebooks draws on the practical knowledge that the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) has generated, since its inception in 1970, through its research and educational activity conducted in partnership with hundreds of thousands of managers and executives. Much of this knowledge is shared–in a way that is distinct from the typical university department, professional association, or consultancy. CCL is not simply a collection of individual experts, although the individual credentials of its staff are impressive; rather it is a community, with its members holding certain principles in common and working together to understand and generate practical responses to today′s leadership and organizational challenges.
The purpose of the series is to provide managers with specific advice on how to complete a developmental task or solve a leadership challenge. In doing that, the series carries out CCL′s mission to advance the understanding, practice, and development of leadership for the benefit of society worldwide.

Don W. Prince is open enrollment manager for CCL s Brussels, Belgium, campus. He has worked for some time and very closely with CCL s Global Initiatives group and travels extensively, having conducted business or training in sixteen countries around the world.

Austin State University, and Baylor School of Nursing. He holds degrees from the University of North Texas and Southwestern Seminary.

Michael H. Hoppe is a senior program and research associate at CCL. He brings to his work a rich and varied background in cross–cultural leadership development. In his research, he concentrates on effective leadership in a multicultural environment.

He holds a Ph.D. in organizational development and institutional studies from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
