This book is about leadership in organizations. Its primary focus is on managerial leadership as opposed to parliamentary leadership, leadership of social movements, or emergent leadership in informal groups.

and more useful to most readers:
• Most chapters were revised for clarity and understanding (including Chapters 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7 ,
9 , 10 , 12 , 15 , and 16 ).
• The order of Chapters 4 to 12 was modified to improve explanation of related topics.
• Several new examples of effective and ineffective leadership were added to Chapters 4 , 6 , 11 , 13 , and 14 .
• More practical guidelines for effective leadership were added to Chapters 3 , 6 , 7 , and 8 .
• Several new examples were used in Chapters 3 , 11 , 12 , and 14 to explain how research is conducted.
• Over 100 citations to recent research were added throughout.
