Boston: Harvard Business School Press, October 2005. Hardcover. First Edition / full number line. Fine book in a Very Good jacket. Interior pristine. Spine straight and tight. Jacket clean and bright with a 1/2 inch tear at lower rear flap fold. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped.

This unique leadership book invites readers to step into the classroom of Harvard leadership virtuoso Ronald Heifetz and his colleagues to understand this dynamic type of leadership and experience a corresponding mode of learning called "case in point." Unlike traditional teaching approaches that analyze the experiences of past leaders, case in point uses individuals' own experiences--and the classroom environment itself--as a crucible for learning. This bold approach enables emerging leaders to work actively through the complex demands of today's workplace and build their skills as they discover theory in practice.
