Overcoming Bad Leadership in Organizations cover

Leadership is the most consequential force impacting the lives of billions of people around the world. In healthy organizations, leadership is a productive force that inspires cooperation and builds cultures that give people meaning and purpose in their lives. On the other hand, nearly everyone has experienced a bad boss and the detrimental effects of poor leadership. Overcoming Bad Leadership in Organizations brings together the foremost experts on the dark side of leadership to offer groundbreaking insights to leaders, talent management professionals, and psychologists. The goal is to confront reality head on, to shed the idea that leadership is always good, and in this space increase our understanding of the perils of dysfunctional leadership. With this knowledge, readers are well-positioned to improve their own leadership style, consult with organizations to ameliorate abusive and dysfunctional leadership, hold bad actors accountable, and unleash good leadership around the world.

Anyone who has ever had a "toxic" boss will probably love this book. * Choice *
