Under the guise of modern day "situational leadership," organizations still take refuge in this outdated theory. In Leading Change, James O'Toole argues that such amoral practices are ultimately ineffective--and demonstrates instead that successful leadership is rooted in high moral purpose and consistent respect for followers. |
