I'm using this book for a graduate course. It is very readable and has lots of interesting side articles included. The many evaluations it provides provide a quick way to see new perspectives on your leadership style. It provides a broad view of leadership theories, styles, followership, culture, etc. I have taken another graduate course that uses Dr. Daft's Management book. There are many overlapping topics between the two books as expected. There is also a website associated with the book which has some good resources including PowerPoint slides. My only complaint is the price seems high for a non-hardbound book.

This textbook is written in very clear and simple language. Very easy to understand.

I found this texbook to be very useful. I used it for a graduate leadership seminar and I was very pleased with the way Richard Daft organized and wrote the book. Anyone seeking to better understand leadership would benefit tremendously from reading this book.
