Preface Target Market This book is intended for leadership courses offered at the undergraduate and graduate levels in schools of busi- ness, public administration, health care, education, psychology, and sociology. No prior coursework in business or management is required. The textbook can also be used in management development courses that emphasize the leadership function, and can supplement management or organizational behavior courses that emphasize leader- ship, especially with an applications/skill development focus.
Goals and Overview of Competitive Advantages In his book Power Tools, John Nirenberg asks, “Why are so many well-intended students learning so much and yet able to apply so little in their personal and professional lives?” Is it surprising that students cannot apply what they read and cannot develop skills, when most textbooks continue to focus on theoretical concepts? Textbooks need to take the next step and develop students’ ability to apply what they read and to build skills using the concepts. I (Lussier) started writing management textbooks in 1988—prior to the call by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) for skill development and outcomes assessment—to help professors teach their stu- dents how to apply concepts and develop management skills. Pfeffer and Sutton concluded that the most important insight from their research is that knowledge that is actually implemented is much more likely to be acquired from learning by doing, than from learning by reading, listening, or thinking. We designed this book to give students the opportunity to learn by doing.
The overarching goal of this book is reflected in its subtitle: theory, application, skill development. We devel- oped the total package to teach leadership theory and concepts, to improve ability to apply the theory through critical thinking, and to develop leadership skills. Following are our related goals in writing this book:
• To be the only traditional leadership textbook to incorporate the three-pronged approach. We make a clear dis- tinction between coverage of theory concepts, their application, and the development of skills based on the con- cepts. The Test Bank includes questions under each of the three approaches.
• To make this the most “how-to” leadership book on the market. We offer behavior models with step-by-step guidelines for handling various leadership functions (such as how to set objectives, give praise and instructions, coach followers, resolve conflicts, and negotiate).
• To offer the best coverage of traditional leadership theories, by presenting the theories and research findings with- out getting bogged down in too much detail.
• To create a variety of high-quality application material, using the concepts to develop critical-thinking skills. • To create a variety of high-quality skill-development exercises, which build leadership skills that can be used in
students’ personal and professional life. • To offer behavior-modeling leadership skills training. • To make available a DVD, including 7 Behavior Model Videos and 12 Video Cases. • To suggest self-assessment materials that are well integrated and illustrate the important concepts discussed in the
text. Students begin by determining their personality profile in Chapter 2, and then assess how their personality affects their leadership potential in the remaining chapters.

xiv PREFACE
• To provide a flexible teaching package, so that professors can design the course to best meet the leadership needs of their students. The total package includes more material than can be covered in one course. Supplemental material is included, thus only one book is needed—making it a low-cost alternative for the student.
Flexibility Example The textbook, with 12 chapters, allows time for other materials to be used in the leadership course. The textbook includes all the traditional topics in enough detail, however, to use only the textbook for the course. It offers so much application and skill-development material that it cannot all be covered in class during one semester. Instructors have the f lexibility to select only the content and features that best meet their needs.
Specific Competitive Advantage— Pedagogical Features Three-Pronged Approach We created course materials that truly develop students into leaders. As the title of this book implies, we provide a balanced, three-pronged approach to the curriculum:
• A clear understanding of the traditional theories and concepts of leadership, as well as of the most recently developed leadership philosophies
• Application of leadership concepts through critical thinking • Development of leadership skills
The three-pronged approach is clear in the textbook and is carried throughout the Instructor’s Manual and Test Bank.
Theory
Leadership Theories, Research and References, and Writing Style: This book has been written to provide the best coverage of the traditional leadership theories, present- ing the theories and research findings clearly without being bogged down in too much detail. The book is heavily referenced with classic and current citations. Unlike the text- books of some competitors, this book does not use in-text citations, to avoid distract- ing the reader and adding unnecessary length to the text chapters. Readers can refer to the notes for complete citations of all sources. Thus, the book includes all the traditional leadership topics, yet we believe it is written in a livelier, more conversational manner than those of our competitors.
The following features are provided to support the first step in the three-pronged approach—theory.
Learning Outcomes: Each chapter begins with Learning Outcomes. At the end of the chapter, the Learning Outcomes are integrated into the chapter summary.
Key Terms: A list of key terms appears at the end of each chapter. Clear definitions are given in the text for approximately 15 of the most important concepts from the chapter (with the key term in bold and the definition in italic).

students to define the key terms of the chapter by writing the correct key term in the blank provided for each definition.
Review Questions: These questions require recall of information generally not covered in the Learning Outcomes.
Application The second prong of our textbook is to have students apply the leadership theories and concepts so that they can develop critical-thinking skills. Students develop their applica- tion skills through the following features.
Opening Case Application: At the beginning of each chapter, information about an actual manager and organization is presented. The case is followed by four to eight questions to get students involved. Throughout the chapter, the answers to the ques- tions are given to illustrate how the manager/organization actually uses the text concepts to create opportunities and solve problems through decision making. A distinctive head (Opening Case APPLICATION) appears when the opening case is applied in the text.
Work Applications: Open-ended questions, called Work Applications, require students to explain how the text concepts apply to their own work experience; there are over 100 of these scattered throughout the text. Student experience can be present, past, summer, full-time, or part-time employment. The questions help the students bridge the gap between theory and the real world. The Work Applications are also included in the Test Bank, to assess students’ ability to apply the concepts.
Concept Applications: Every chapter contains a series of two to six Concept Applica- tion boxes that require students to determine the leadership concept being illustrated in a specific, short example. All the recommended answers appear in the Instructor’s Manual with a brief explanation. In addition, the Test Bank has similar questions, clearly labeled, to assess students’ ability to apply the concepts.
WORK Application 2-1 Based on your personality profile, identify which dimensions are stronger, moderate, and weaker.

Critical-Thinking Questions: There are more than 80 critical-thinking questions (an average of seven per chapter) that can be used for class discussion and/or written assign- ments to develop communication and critical thinking skills.
Cases: Following the Review Questions and Critical Thinking Questions, students are presented with another actual manager and organization. The students learn how the manager/organization applies the leadership concepts from that chapter. Each Case is fol- lowed by questions for the student to answer. Chapters 2 through 11 also include cumula- tive case questions. Cumulative questions relate case material from prior chapters. Thus, students continually review and integrate concepts from previous chapters. Answers to the Case questions are included in the Instructor’s Manual.
Video Cases: All chapters include one Video Case. Seeing actual leaders tackling real management problems and opportunities enhances student application of the concepts. The 12 Video Cases have supporting print material for both instructors and students, including a brief description and critical-thinking questions. Answers to the Video Case questions are included in the Instructor’s Manual.

Skill Development The difference between learning about leadership and learning to be a leader is the ac- quisition of skills, our third prong. This text focuses on skill development so students can use the leadership theories and concepts they learn to improve their personal and profes- sional life.
Self-Assessments: Scattered throughout the text are 37Self-Assessments. Students com- plete these exercises to gain personal knowledge. All information for completing and scoring the assessments is contained within the text. Students determine their personal- ity profile in Chapter 2, and then assess how their personality affects their leadership in the remaining chapters. Self-knowledge leads students to an understanding of how they can and will operate as leaders in the real world. Although Self-Assessments do not de- velop a specific skill, they serve as a foundation for skill development.
SELF-ASSESSMENT 9-3 Personality and Charismatic and Transformational Leadership
Charismatic leaders have charisma based on personality and other personal traits that cut across all of the Big Five personality types. Review the ten qualities of charismatic leaders in Exhibit 9.3 on page 333. Which traits do you have?
If you have a high surgency Big Five personality style and a high need for power, you need to focus on
using socialized, rather than personalized, charismatic leadership.
Transformational leaders tend to be charismatic as well. In Self-Assessment 9-1 on page 329 you determined if you were more transformational or transactional. How does your personality affect your transformational and transac- tional leadership styles?
You Make the Ethical Call The boxes present issues of ethics for class discussion, with many presenting actual situations faced by real companies. Each dilemma contains two to four questions for class discussion.
YOU Make the ETHICAL Call
1.1 Is Leadership Really Important?
Scott Adams is the creator of the cartoon character Dilbert. Adams makes fun of manag- ers, in part because he distrusts top-level managers, saying that leadership is really a crock. Leadership is about manipulating people to get them to do something they don’t want to do, and there may not be anything in it for them. CEOs basically run the same scam as fortune-tellers, who make up a bunch of guesses, and when by chance one is correct, they hope you forget the other errors. First, CEOs blame their predecessors for anything that is bad, then they shuffle everything around, start a new strategic program, and wait. When things go well, despite the CEO, the CEO takes the credit and moves on to the next job. Adams says we may be hung up on leadership as part of our DNA. It seems we have always sought to put somebody above everybody else.
1. Do you agree with Scott Adams that leadership is a crock?
2. Do we really need to have someone in the leadership role?

xviii PREFACE
Developing Your Leadership Skills: There are between one and four Exercises at the end of each chapter. We use the term developing your leadership skills only in referring to an exercise that will develop a skill that can be used in the students’ personal or professional life at work. Full support of 30 activities can be found in the Instructor’s Manual, includ- ing detailed information, timing, answers, and so on. There are three primary types of exercises:
Individual Focus. Students make individual decisions about exercise questions before or during class. Students can share their answers in class discussions, or the instructor may elect to go over recommended answers.
Group/Team Focus. Students discuss the material presented and may select group an- swers and report to the class.
Role-Play Focus. Students are presented with a model and given the opportunity to use the model to apply their knowledge of leadership theories through role-playing exercises.
Behavior Model Skills Training: Six of the Developing Your Leadership Skills Exercises may be used as part of behavior modeling by using the step-by-step models in the text and the Behavior Model Videos. Meta-analysis research has concluded that behavior modeling skills training is effective at developing leadership skills. For example, students read the conflict resolution model in the text, watch the video in class, and then complete an Exercise (role-play) to resolve a conflict, using the model and feedback from others.
Case Role-Play Exercise: Following each Case are instructions to prepare students to conduct an in-class role-play, based on a situation presented in the Case. Through role- playing, students develop their skills at handling leadership situations. For example, stu- dents are asked to conduct a motivational speech and to develop a vision and mission statement for an organization.
Step-by-Step Behavior Models: In addition to traditional theories of leadership, the text includes behavior models: how-to steps for handling day-to-day leadership functions, such as how to set objectives, give praise, coach, resolve conflicts, delegate, and negotiate.
Behavior Model Videos: There are seven Behavior Model Videos that reinforce the de- velopment of skills. The videos demonstrate leaders successfully handling common lead- ership functions, using the step-by-step behavior models discussed earlier in the Theory section. Students learn from watching the videos and/or using them in conjunction with the Skill-Development Exercises. Material in the text integrates the videos into the chap- ters. Ideas for using all videos are detailed in the Instructor’s Manual.
