5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent as a Textbook
Reviewed in the United States on 26 February 2022

After taking many, many, many college courses, it is such a relief to have a textbook that is understandable, relatable, and easy to read. Often times, reading and composition classes come with extensive textbook reading that requires hours of time to get through not to mention a dictionary companion. Introduction to Leadership by Peter Northouse is a concise and understandable text to help readers get what they need from the topic and complete their assignments. Thank you Mr. Northouse:)

I bought this book as mandatory for a college online leadership class. Easy to read & comprehend with many real-life case studies that are applicable to today's leadership situations. I will hold this book as a reference tool for a long time after the class is over. Excellent buy for the money, too!
