Supplemental Reading for Grad Class
I bought this for a grad school class I was taking on leadership. The professor used each chapter as a separate case study to jump start discussion on different leadership techniques, styles, problems, successes, and disasters. The chapters are informative, easy to read, and enlightening. Not a book I would have picked up on my own and read, I've still found it to be enjoyable.
