Associate Professor of Business Dr. Lisa Kahle-Piasecki has co-authored a new textbook on the topic of leadership, along with coco-author Catherine Rymsha.
Their book, titled Leadership for the Now, is published by Kendall Hunt Publishing. It is currently available.
According to Lisa, the book features interviews with local leaders, including Heidelberg Board of Trustees Chair Kathleen Geier, Trustee Emeritus Sondra Libman and School of Business Advisory Board member Mark Turpin. Also included is a feature on local company National Machinery.
Leadership for the Now also compares the differences and similarities between leadership and management, explores leadership theories, styles, traits and skills, and discusses why leadership is more important than ever and why people are intrigued by its practice.
Congratulations to Lisa and her co-author on a project three years in the making!
