Leadership in Organizations, 9th Edition, is a textbook by Gary A. Yukl and William L. Gardner III that reviews key models and empirical research on managerial effectiveness. Rather than detailing exhaustive studies or prescribing rigid behaviors, the text emphasizes major findings and practical recommendations.
Coverage addresses leadership behavior, situational factors, adaptive leadership, and decision-making. The volume also examines methods for guiding organizational change, sharing authority through empowerment, and understanding follower dynamics.
Designed to help readers succeed as future managers, the text connects research findings to situational choices. The 2020 edition added new citations, examples, and guidelines for improved clarity.
