About the Editors

I like the global approach to presenting leadership, as well as the collection of cases available. It is well written, and lends itself easy to generate engagement within the classroom.

Redmond Humphrey
Upper Iowa University

Presented five cases contained in this book to the class. Students' task was to solve the cases. Feedback hereafter: Solving cases made fun and brought valuable perspectives on the topic of leadership.
I liked that most cases were appropriate for students of psychology who do not have business classes.
Book was well structured and I really liked that the cases referred each to one leadership theory - this is hard to find.
