Indispensable advice for business professionals--from history's wisest leaders A highly regarded scholar of leadership and the qualities shared by outstanding leaders, Barbara Kellerman provides expert analysis of the works of history's greatest authorities on leadership--theorists and practitioners alike. "On Leadership" contains writings from some of history's most influential figures, ranging from Lincoln to Lenin, Hobbes to Havel, and Machiavelli to Marx. Kellerman chose her entries based on their contemporary significance regarding power, authority, and influence, and she clearly explains how today's business leader can put the words of the masters to practical use. Providing a remarkably wide scope of perspectives, including history, psychology, philosophy, and government, "On Leadership" is an eminently instructive book for any leader in any field.
