摘要:In recent years, there has been a proliferation of books published about leadership styles. We have seen the meteoric rise in popularity of Stephen Covey‟s The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People and now his Principle-Centered Leadership is fast becoming a best-seller. John C. Maxwell offers readers basic insights into various issues surrounding leadership in his Leadership 101: What Every Leader Needs to Know; while Rudolph W. Giuliani utilized his experience of being mayor of New York and produced his memoir-like volume, Leadership. These publications and many others on the development of leadership styles are indicative of a search for more collaborative and participative models of leadership. I think intuitively we know something is just not right. The model of the ruthless, capitalist CEO, the lone ranger at the top of the heap is a model that is being called into question by more than a few thinking people. Yet even the best of these volumes focus on skills and techniques without giving attention to the transformation of the one who is in leadership.
