Book Review: "Leading At A Higher Level" By Ken Blanchard
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. One of the major themes in Blanchard's (2006) book entitled Leading at a Higher Level is how leadership simply cannot be construed as a one-person job, especially when it comes to decision-making; rather, the author is quick to note how the process of making decisions is not the sole responsibility of one individual but instead requires the input, analysis and agreement of everyone involved - either directly or indirectly - in the final outcome. This teamwork mentality is what has fueled Blanchard's (2006) nearly three decades of experience within the industry, a time he has spent cultivating and fine-tuning the collaborative leadership techniques he puts forth in the book.

Book Review: "The Nature Of Leadership" By Antonakis Et Al
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. A primary theme that separates The Nature of Leadership edited by Antonakis et al (2004) from many other management books is how the very aspect of leadership extends far beyond the finite scope of business. Incorporating the humanities and social sciences into the overall impact of effective leadership allows the editors to expand readers' understanding of how the fundamental basis of guidance - managerial or otherwise - exists in virtually every facet of life; Antonakis et al (2004) clearly illustrate that if people are not inclined to respect and follow those in the position of leadership in any of these areas, no objective - regardless of how seemingly insignificant - will be achieved. In this vein, the editors highlight articles that illustrate individualistic North American leadership values over and above a more collective approach valued by various other parts of the world.
