Leadership can sometimes drag on and be a boring subject to talk about. In this book, Komives puts simple ideas and big text together to make reading though the textbook quite easy. While some of the idea's are off-base and definitely need some work (I am looking at you MBTI 2.0), there are also many great theories that can be expaned upon for great discussion. Normal classes consisted of reading the book as homework and discussing how we could apply these theories in everyday life.

I am not saying this is the solution for future leaders, but food for thought still filled the appetite.

I have not read the book, yet, so not reviewing that. But, I followed the instructions to get the code:

"E-book customers must prove they have purchased the book to obtain their StrengthsFinder access code from Wiley Customer Service"

Wiley online chat support representatives would not provide the code. I had to call Wiley Customer Service (good luck finding the phone number). They provided the code and told me that they would tell their online chat reps to provide the code in the future. Here's the Wiley Customer Service phone number just in case: (877) 762-2974.

I absolutely LOVED this book! I originally just rented the text for a class, but ended up purchasing it for my personal collection. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to take on a position of leadership or for anyone who is already in that position. Even if you're not interested in pursuing a leadership position, this book is beneficial to understanding how different roles work in any type of work or group setting.

Full of great info. Not a book you will want to get rid of after a class is over!

This book should not be marketed to college students. This was such basic information that it probably would have been better for middle school students, honestly. Huge waste of money and time.

Thank you.

I rented this book, and it came in within a reasonable time frame. As for the content of the book, I enjoyed reading it, even though it was assigned reading for a past Leadership Theory class. Pretty quality material! The chapters seem long, but that is just because it is very large print.

It came in perfect condition! This book is wonderful, and great to highlight in. The texture of the pages are perfect for writing in it as well. It also comes with a free access code that is $10 without the book, so I’m reality I only payed around 34 for a NEW college textbook! (:
