Leadership - International Student Edition: Theory and Practice Peter G. Northouse is an English-language textbook aimed at higher education audiences. It covers the main theories and models of leadership, with an emphasis on the application of theory and practice.
Each chapter follows a fixed structure that explains the theory, discusses the key research, and presents both the strengths and weaknesses of the approach. In addition, each chapter includes three case studies and a self-assessment questionnaire, enabling students to reflect directly on their own leadership style. The fully updated ninth edition introduces a new chapter on inclusive leadership, discusses leadership and morality, and covers current topics such as leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This textbook aligns with fields such as Business and Management, Communication Studies, and general economics, and offers a practical and theoretical framework for students who are delving into leadership concepts.
