Finding Your Leadership Style

Think Again
Our personal and political worlds are rife with arguments and disagreements, some of them petty and vitriolic.

Social media has produced a virulent world where extreme positions dominate. There is much demonization of the other side, very little progress is made, and the end result is further widening of positions. How did this happen, and what might be done to address it?

Leadership for the Twenty-First Century
This illuminating study critiques the concept of leadership as understood in the last 75 years and looks to the twenty-first century for a reconstructed understanding of leadership in the postindustrial era. More similarities in past decades were found than had been thought; the thread throughout Rost's book is that leadership was conceived of as good management.

The book concludes with suggestions that can be immediately utilized in helping to transform our understanding of leadership.
