Meeting the Ethical Challenges of Leadership Reviews

I do not know of another text that comes close to it . . .This book is one of the best on the market! -- Diane Chandler
The best quality of this text is its emphasis on the leader-casting light or shadow. This theme/metaphor challenges the reader to take stock of him/herself with respect to the metaphor and encourages changes, if necessary, to be a 'light caster.' -- James K. Dittmar
For my needs, leadership and ethics, this book delivers in ways that allow me to be an effective instructor on this topic. -- Lee E. Meadows
I believe Meeting the Challenges of Ethical Leadership has been a very good basis text for the ethics courses I have taught over the last ten years. -- Mary Jane Kuffner-Hirt
I already utilize the text and my students like it... It has a fairly nice balance between the complexity of the topic and readability and understandability. -- Alison Antes
The self-assessments seem particularly popular and insightful. -- Frederick Brockmeier
I use the text now in 4 classes at three colleges with excellent results. The students love this book. -- Lonnie Inzer
