With every chapter revised and new chapters on validation and recent advances in the field, this Second Edition
provides unrivalled support for the full-range model for facilitating, if not accelerating, the development of exemplary leadership.
A practical guide to leadership development based on the world′s most thoroughly researched leadership development model
Conversational and accessible, this Second Edition of Bruce J. Avolio′s groundbreaking book uses the full range leadership development model as an organizing framework and shows how it can be directly applied to improving leadership at the individual, team, and organizational levels. Filled with examples that show how the full range model comes to life in today′s global world, Full Range Leadership Development, Second Edition, demonstrates how people, timing, resources, the context of interaction, and expected results in performance and motivation all contribute to effective leadership.
Over the last decade, the full range model has become the most researched model in the leadership literature-and the most validated-and has been proven to be an accurate guide for developing exemplary leadership in diverse cultures, organizations, and leadership positions. The new edition shows how the process of leadership development is linked to validation and how the process of validation informs accelerated leadership development.
