The Art of Leadership

Manning, George

The Art of Leadership - 3rd ed. - New York McGraw-Hill 2009 - xvii, 454p. Includes index

This book is based on two ideas. The first is that leadership will take place to the extent the leader cares about the work to be done. Equally important, the leader must care about people. Neither of these qualities is sufficient without the other, and neither can be false. People know when the leader cares. When the leader is committed to the task and is concerned about people, these qualities serve as magnets and motivators to followers, and their potential for achievement becomes enormous. The second premise of the book is that leadership is an art that can be developed through mastery of nine key areas of success.
