Summary: Interesting and useful book!
Review: Leadership Skills for Managers is filled with valuable tips, revealing self-assessments, and probing questions. And, every chapter ends with a checklist that I found very useful. Best of all, though, were the inserts scattered throughout the chapters. "Henry's Hubris," for example, was an example of Smart Managing: it showed that when corporate spies went skulking around, trying to catch managers making decisions, productivity declined, as did morale. These short, interesting inclusions alone were worth the price of the book.

Summary: High on the "must read" list
Review: Leadership Skills for Managers(published by McGraw-Hill) provides some unusual slants on the topic of leadership. For example, the assertion that "leaders form strategic alliances" was something I hadn't considered before. The Prism of Partnerships showed exactly how to form such alliances. Thank you for some new slants on an old subject.
