Rezensionen

Ann s book is everything a good textbook about leadership and management should be: It is thought-provoking, challenging, reflexive, packed with knowledge, and mostly, a fresh read in a jungle of boring, slight-variations-over-the-same, management books. Also, Ann is doing an important job in advocating for much-needed critical thinking within the field by challenging conventional assumptions and mainstream literature, and the book reflects this ambition in a good way.
