Product Review

The book reviews the validity and reliability of instruments that measure the most widely referenced theories of leadership. It also reviews the meta-analytic literature supporting the most popular theories of organizational leadership.

The book is not designed as a “how to lead better in 10 steps” type of book. Rather, it is a deeper look into the empirical base that supports popular theories. It is a superb introductory textbook for masters or doctoral coursework in organizational leadership or as a reference source for students who are writing masters theses or doctoral dissertations.
