Reviews'In this volume the redoubtable John Storey has done it again: assembling a first-rate cast of contributors and getting them to deliver their best work. This new edition of Leadership in Organizations tells us where the frontline in our knowledge about leadership, in both public and private organisations is, and where it is going. A real gem - highly recommended.'- Paul 't Hart, Utrecht University and Netherlands school of Public Administration, The Netherlands 'Leadership continues to be both relevant and misunderstood. This excellent volume reinforces the value of leadership and offers unique insights on improving leadership.'- Dave Ulrich, Rensis Likert Professor of Business, University of Michigan, USA
