The second edition of the bestselling handbook has been updated to build on the previous edition with a synopsis of the latest changes in the field of leadership development. This includes new benchmark case studies from the world's foremost companies; a wealth of proven guidelines, tools, and models; and a presentation of the latest theories on leadership. This volume also puts the emphasis on "signature experiences"--those initiatives that create a unique and memorable impact on individuals, teams, and eventually the organization.
