From the author: Flexible Leadership: Creating Value by Balancing Multiple Challenges and Choices is the kind of book that individuals from all sectors can easily read, appreciate, and incorporate into their work lives. Co-authored by Dr. Gary Yukl and Richard Lepsinger, this book assumes both an academic and pragmatic approach to leadership. Written during a time that will be remembered for its emphasis on fiscal restraint, changing private and public sector rules, regulations and policies, its premise is that good leaders are expert at scanning their environment and knowing when to make adjustments. These individuals employ techniques that are not instilled but learned and allow them to know when they should lead or manage. They know how to build relationships that yield mutually positive results by nurturing leadership competencies at all levels within and outside their particular organizations. These leaders are found not only within the ranks of private business but also university administrators, researchers, and government policymakers, and are pivotal to ensuring the success of any enterprise.
