CHOICE Review

Hiebert and Klatt provide information concerning some 130 theories and methods that will help develop effective leadership. These theories were chosen for their practicality, popularity, and value. A "leadership tool finder" presents a series of common leadership problems and points readers to pertinent sections of the book that will enable them to deal effectively with the problems. An alphabetical list of "leadership gurus" is linked to methods based on their ideas. The book has 15 sections providing information on such topics as developing skills in communication, strategic thinking, problem solving, leading meetings, teams, and performance and supplies worksheets that also can be downloaded from the Web and edited to meet the needs of particular organizations. These worksheets offer a means for self-evaluation, self-testing, and information gathering. Also provided are coaching, mentoring and training tools. Each topic points to related tools within this resource and provides a bibliography for further research. Recommended for practitioners and for academic and public libraries with comprehensive business collections. M. F. Grosch Northern Illinois University
