The Leadership Challenge: How to Keep Getting Extraordinary Things Done in
James M. Kouzes; Barry Z. Posner; Tom Peters
Jossey-Bass, 1996-11-22. Paperback. Good. First Paperback Edition, 1997. Foreword by Tom Peters. In the 1980s and again in the '90s, James M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner published The Leadership Challenge to address issues they uncovered in research on ordinary people achieving "individual leadership standards of excellence." The keys they identified--model the way, inspire a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act, encourage the heart--have now been reexamined in the context of the post-millennium world and updated in a third edition. "What we have discovered, and rediscovered, is that leadership is not the private reserve of a few charismatic men and women. People make extraordinary things happen by liberating the leader within everyone." NOTE: Cover show some edge wear. Other than that, the book is in great shape! 406 clean and unmarked pages. Book is in stock and ready to ship. ( more information)
