Review
"In the last quarter of this century, America has produced no more perceptive or broad-gauged student of leadership than James O'Toole. Now he brings all of his scholarly thoughtfulness and practical experience to bear in a masterful book for all of us. It is brilliantly grounded in theory, but stunningly usable. It is, as O'Toole claims, about what leaders actually do."(Tom Peters)
"You don't have to shout to convince. Jim O'Toole talks softly, yet convincingly, about what leaders do, or can do. The moral and the pragmatic aspects of leadership come together nicely and are served up in small, bite-sized pieces of wise, well-written text."(Sumantra Ghoshal, Robert P. Bauman Professor of Strategic Leadership, London Business School)
"Most of us will be familiar with the successful, less successful, and unsuccessful characters found in this book, but I have never been as thoroughly absorbed by a style of storytelling that brings human behavior so much to life."(David Law-Smith, chairman of the board and CEO, Caltex Corporation)
