4.0 out of 5 stars weLEAD Book Review ..., Feb 12 2002
By Greg L. Thomas (Litchfield, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Leadership in Organizations (Hardcover)
Yukl uses his expertise and credibility to write an outstanding book focusing on managerial leadership rather than social or parliamentary leadership. He attempts to include information on both the theory and practice of leadership in modern organizations. This valuable text also includes many recommendations and guidelines for improving the effectiveness of managers and leaders. The book includes a number of cases in an attempt to help the reader understand real world organizational problems and applications. This is a book that is primarily written and mostly reads like a college text book and is indeed used by a number of universities in their managerial or leadership programs. However, it is easy to read and does an excellent job of including the most informative and relative literature, studies and theories available today. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the study of organizational leadership, leading teams, leading change or studying follower-based approaches toward leadership.

5.0 out of 5 stars Astonishing Resource, May 4 2007
By Neil LaChapelle (Waterloo, ON, Canada) - See all my reviews
This book is a remarkable resource for anyone designing a course on leadership, especially at the graduate level. It covers essentially the same ground as Peter Northouse's book, but Northouse's text is much more "engineered": more heavily edited and clipped, lots of break-out boxes, built-in questionaires, etc. Yukl's book, by contrast, offers a much more sustained and measured look at each leadership theory/approach. Also, Yukl's book is remarkably strong in developing a full critique of the empirical and theoretical grounds for each theory. It's a gem in this regard, actually. If you wanted to teach a course in the critical analysis of social-scientific research in general, this book would admirably serve that purpose. While Northouse's book is perfect for an intensive professional-development program, I consider Yukl's book to be the definitive text for any graduate-level general survey of the leadership literature.
