 If you want to learn about Leadership..start here September 16, 2008
This book is excellent. Easy to read and very interesting. Although it is a textbook, it reads more like a novel. The online helps are worthwhile as well.
Good text book. July 14, 2008
OK, this book is not too bad. A fairly easy read and it is well written. Plenty of great ideas.
Clear and Thorough May 1, 2008
I found this texbook to be very useful. I used it for a graduate leadership seminar and I was very pleased with the way Richard Daft organized and wrote the book. Anyone seeking to better understand leadership would benefit tremendously from reading this book.
 simple and clear information February 8, 2008
This textbook is written in very clear and simple language. Very easy to understand.
Great book on Leadership with interesting material February 14, 2007
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I'm using this book for a graduate course. It is very readable and has lots of interesting side articles included. The many evaluations it provides provide a quick way to see new perspectives on your leadership style. It provides a broad view of leadership theories, styles, followership, culture, etc. I have taken another graduate course that uses Dr. Daft's Management book. There are many overlapping topics between the two books as expected. There is also a website associated with the book which has some good resources including PowerPoint slides. My only complaint is the price seems high for a non-hardbound book.
