Recent financial crises and other high-profile mismanagement cases
have brought a spotlight to the quality of leader character in the
business sector. Leadership in Practice is the first book to
provide an authoritative collection of cases to engage students
interested in the importance of the character of business leaders.
The authors have compiled a collection of cutting-edge cases and
readings, situating them within a theoretical landscape, so
students are familiarized with the concepts as they move through
the text. The cases cover a wide range of successful
businesses-from the NFL to Apple-and include notable controversies,
such as those surrounding Enron and Volkswagen. Alongside exclusive
interviews and insights into the value of leadership character at
individual, team, organizational and societal levels, the book
includes learning objectives and discussion questions to facilitate
lively debate and interaction in the classroom. This volume will be
a valuable supplement for students and instructors in any
leadership class as well as researchers and practitioners
interested in exploring case studies that illuminate the nature of
leadership in a business setting.
