Focusing on managerial leadership, the author presents a broad survey of theory and research intended to please both academics and practitioners. New chapters discuss leading teams, leading change, follower-based approaches to leadership, and developing leaders. Other updates include expanded information on topics such as strategic leadership, influence processes, self-managed teams, distributed leadership, and being a good follower; and more practitioner guidelines to help managers apply the theory and research findings.
