The Humanitarian Leader in Each of Us

From the authors of the best-selling books 'TeamWork' and 'When Teams Work Best', this is an ideal supplement for undergraduate and graduate courses in leadership, servant leadership, social leadership, service learning and social entrepreneurship.

"A powerful, moving, and substantive book that puts leadership in the hands of every day people. LaFasto and Larson's work is grounded in theory yet crystal clear in describing the core dimensions of humanistic leadership. This book expands the domain of leadership and encourages all of us to make life better in some way for others." - Peter G. Northouse, Western Michigan University
