Recenzijos

"It is very difficult to find leadership books which combine academic rigour with practical relevance. Paul Evan's book manages to achieve this whilst also being engaging, concise and parsimonious. This is a great entry level resource for students and practitioners of leadership alike."

Daniel Muzio, Professor of Management at University of York, UK

"Reexive Leadership in Context improves our understanding by moving us beyond the traditional theoretical confines of the area to embrace self-analysis as well as critical frameworks for understanding leadership in practice. The book will indispensable for both students and teachers of leadership alike. An excellent contribution highly recommended."

John Hassard, Professor of Organizational Analysis, Alliance Manchester Business School, The University of Manchester, UK

"Despite the millions of words written and spoken about leadership, still we see chronic problems with the ways in which organizations, firms and nations are led. Paul Evans' book provides a welcome critique of the simplicity and inadequacy of so much of the leadership canon while also offering wise practical guidance. An indispensable introduction to a topic of enduring importance."

Leo McCann, Professor of Management, University of York, UK
