This is a great addition to the text. It is important for leaders to understand and meet the needs of those whom they are leading and the environment in which their interactions take place. They must seamlessly account for all these factors in a way that is not focused on the leader him or herself, but on the context. [The Adaptive Leadership Chapter] presents leadership through a new lens and provides an approach to leadership that was missing from previous editions. It offers concrete practical examples that are relatable and provide context to both current and future leaders., Leadership: Theory and Practice is a 'must have' for all students studying leadership at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Theories of leadership are articulated in a very accessible manner and supported by appropriate case studies which bring meaning to the rhetoric -reality debate. This text is well structured and takes the student on a learning journey which leads to a greater understanding of leadership in its broadest sense., Northouse is highly readable and explains leadership material extremely well. He then presents the strengths and weaknesses of various leadership approaches in a compelling way, yielding evidence based leadership practices., I have found Peter's books exceptionally well written, applauded by my students for its quality and readability. It immediately leads us excitingly toward the geneses of the symptoms we often treat as causal. It is direct and logical in its development. It is easy reading but by no means elementary. Finally but more importantly, it will I feel help students better understand their own needs and develop plans for further development., Leadership: Theory and Practice is a 'must have' for all students studying leadership at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.
