Comments: 1998. SIGNED and inscribed by Author on front fly. Later printing. Hardcover. G+/G+. 348pgs. Heifetz presents clear, concrete prescriptions for anyone who needs to take the lead in almost any situation, under almost any organizational conditions, no matter who's in charge. His strategy of leadership applies not only to people at the top but also to those who must lead without authority - activists as well as presidents, managers as well as workers on the frontline. Here are Lyndon Johnson, Martin Luther King Jr., and Mahatma Gandhi, in triumph and in tragedy. Here too are military officers and soldiers, doctors and patients, college students, and local civic groups. Sketched with precision, touched by empathy, and unfailingly interesting, this cast of characters brings Heifetz's theory to life, demonstrating what a practitioner can do - or avoid doing - to assume leadership in an age without easy answers. Blue boards with black spine. Some moderate rubbing and edgewear to DJ. About a 1/4 closed tear to bottom back cover edge of DJ. Tight binding and clean text. No highlighting and/or writing. DJ covered in Brodart Mylar.
