Praise for LEARNING LEADERSHIP
"How heartening it is to see definitive proof that great leaders are made, not born. Learn for yourself how to make critical connections, collect and use constructive feedback, and lead any size of organization with deliberation and success with the wisdom mined, analyzed, and presented by Kouzes and Posner!"
-Marshall Goldsmith is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Triggers, MOJO, and What Got You Here Won't Get You There
"So, you want to be a leader? This book shows you how. With fluid writing, comprehensive research, and actionable insights, Kouzes and Posner debunk myths and demonstrate that leadership is comprised of a clear set of skills and abilities that can be learned, practiced, and mastered."
-Tina Seelig, professor of the practice, Stanford School of Engineering; author of Insight Out, inGenius, andWhat I Wish I Knew When I Was 20
"Kouzes and Posner believe, as I do, that leaders are made, and they support that belief with hard evidence adn live examples. Learning Leadership is rich with essential tools and practical advice for becoming an extraordinary leader in any environment. This is the book you need to come out on top!"
-John C. Maxwell, New York Times bestselling author and leadership expert
"Learning Leadership covers the fundamentals of what it takes to become an exemplary leader. Kouzes and Posner have done a wonderful job recognizing and sharing the mindset of leaders as learners-and they offer evidence-based tools and techniques that you can put to use right away."
-Adam Grant, Wharton professor and New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take and Originals
"In my work, people often ask, 'Is there one best book you could recommend on leadership?' In the past, that choice was difficult, but not anymore. Learning Leadership is that one book with widespread appeal and true value. This book gives each of us the ability to set upon a lifelong path of development as leaders."
