Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience Summary

Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience by Richard Hughes

Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience, 10e, now consists of 18 chapters, four of which cover specific leadership skills and qualities covered in each of the book's four sections. Hughes, Ginnett, and Curphy draw upon three different types of literature - empirical studies; interesting anecdotes, stories, and findings; and leadership skills - to create a text that is personally relevant, interesting, and scholarly. The authors' unique quest for a careful balancing act of leadership materials helps students apply theory and research to their real-life experiences. The 10th edition has been thoroughly updated in virtually every chapter, including new content specific to how leaders respond to crisis (related to the pandemic).
