Features: The Psychology of Leadership stands out among the numerous specialized and translated books on "leadership behavior," "leadership science," and "leadership art" currently available. I selected it for my training courses. First, the book is rich in content and novel, with many materials collected by the author during their studies and work in the United States, which are hard to find in general publications. Second, it includes numerous charts and the results and data of empirical research, differing from some leadership books that often rely solely on theoretical discussions. Third, the book excerpts and references many documents in the form of "reading materials," which greatly alleviates the reader's frustration of being unable to find the original sources. What's more important is that the author pays attention to connecting the book to current realities, such as the concluding chapter "The Psychology of Leadership in a Changing Era," which offers great insights to readers. This book is highly suitable for university faculty and students as a teaching material, while also benefiting enterprises and government agencies by helping officials improve their work capabilities.
