Active leadership is a requirement for today's managers. This is a timely guide for managers to building their essential leadership qualities. A must read! (Gerald Miwa, vice president, DuPont Merck Pharmaceutical Company)

Napolitano and Henderson offer more than answers to today's challenges. They offer ways to restructure one's thinking so leaders can avoid applying old-world solutions to new-world problems. (Doug Eaton, regional vice president, State Farm Insurance Companies)

Of all the leadership authors on the market today, Carole Napolitano and Lida HAnderson stand out among the best. Their insights will prove invaluable to both public- and private-sector organizations struggling with change. (Susanne V. Slater, associate dean for executive programs, School of Public Affairs, University of Maryland)

Today we all struggle as managers and leaders to stay on top of our game. Leadership Odyssey recognizes all the issues and pressures of a '90s manager's life, both personal and professional, and provides the tools and thoughts to break through to new levels.
