Reviews

“Over a quarter of a century spent in the field of organizational transformation has provided Dr. Adizes with a unique base of knowledge and expertise that floods the pages of Leading the Leaders. His insights cut straight to the heart of what it means to effectively manage and lead others”. <br /><br />—Anthony Robbins, Author, Awaken the Giant Within and Unlimited Power <br /><br />“The Adizes approach to developing trust and mutual respect in an organization is the most effective tool that I have encountered for building strong leadership teams and getting results.” <br /><br />—LYNN L. ELSENHANS, President and Country Chair, Shell Oil Company <br /><br />“Dr. Adizes has brilliantly captured the hows and whys of management and organizational function and dysfunction. In this enlightening book we learn why people and organizations behave as they do and what we can do about it.” <br /><br />—Dennis Alter, Chairman and CEO of Advanta Corporation <br /><br />“The most thought-provoking book I’ve read in a long time. There are any number of writings that give you simplistic thoughts or nice slogans regarding business, but they miss the mark when it comes to getting you to seriously analyze and reconsider what you’ve been doing and how you might improve yourself and your business.” <br /><br />—George Lilly, President, SJL Broadcast Management Corp.
