PREFACEThis book is about leadership in organizations. Its primary focus is on managerial l eadershipas opposed to parliamentary leadership, leadership in social movements, or emergent leadership ininformal groups. The book presents a broad survey of theory and research on leadership in formalorganizations. Topics of special interest are the determinants of leadership effectiveness and howleadership can be improved. William Gardner was added as a second author for this edition toincorporate his knowledge and perspective on effective leadership.The book is appropriate for use as the primary text in an undergraduate or graduate course inleadership. Such courses are found in many different schools or departments, including business,psychology, sociology, educational administration, public administration, and health-care administration. The book is on the list of required or recommended readings for students in many doctoralprograms in leadership, management, and industrial-organizational psychology. With its focus oneffective leadership in organizations, the book is especially relevant for students who expect to become a manager or administrator in the near future, for people who will be responsible for training orcoaching leaders, and for people who will be teaching courses or workshops that include leadershipas one of the key topics. The book is also useful for practicing managers and consultants who arelooking for something more than vague theories and superficial answers to difficult questions aboutleadership. The book is widely used in many different countries, and some editions were translatedinto other languages, including Chinese, Korean, Indonesian, Spanish, Greek, Croatian, and Swedish.The content of the book still reflects a dual concern for theory and practice. We haveattempted to satisfy two different audiences with somewhat different perspectives. Most academics prefer a book that explains and evaluates major theories and relevant empirical research. They are most interested in how well the research was done, what was found, how wellthe research supports the theoretical basis for it, and what additional research is needed. Academicstend to be skeptical about the value of prescriptions and guidelines for practitioners and mayconsider them premature in the absence of further research. In contrast, most practitioners wantsome immediate answers about what to do and how to do it in order to be more effective as leaders. They need to deal with the current challenges of their job and cannot wait for decades untilthe academics resolve their theoretical disputes and obtain definitive answers. Practitioners aremore interested in finding helpful remedies and prescriptions than in finding out how thisknowledge was discovered. Readers who desire to improve their leadership effectiveness willfind this edition of the book is even more useful than previous editions.The different preferences are one of the reasons for the much-lamented gulf betweenscientists and practitioners in management and industrial-organizational psychology. We believe it is important for managers and administrators to understand the complexity of effectiveleadership, the source of our knowledge about leadership in organizations, and the limitationsof this knowledge. Likewise, we believe it is important for academics to think more about howtheir theories and research can be used to improve the practice of management. Too much ofour leadership research is designed to examine narrow, esoteric questions that only interest afew other scholars who publish in the same journals.Academics will be pleased to find that major theories are explained and evaluated, findings in empirical research on leadership are summarized, and many references are provided tohelp readers find sources of additional information about topics of special interest. The field ofleadership is still in a state of ferment, with many continuing controversies about conceptualxviiA01 YUKL5130 09 SE FM.indd 1721/11/18 6:24 PM
xviiiPrefaceand methodological issues. The book addresses these issues, but the literature review was notintended to be comprehensive. Rather than detailing an endless series of weak theories and inconclusive studies like most handbooks of leadership, this book describes major findings abouteffective leadership and how they can be applied by readers.For practitioners and students who desire to become effective managers, we attempted toconvey a better appreciation of the complexity of managerial leadership, the importance of having theoretical knowledge about leadership, and the need to be flexible and pragmatic in applying this knowledge. The current edition provides many guidelines and recommendations forimproving managerial effectiveness, but it is not a “practitioner’s manual” of simple techniquesand secret recipes that guarantee instant success. The purpose of the guidelines is to help thereader understand the practical implications of the leadership theory and research, not to prescribe exactly how things must be done by a leader. Most of the guidelines are based on a limitedamount of rese
graduate, MBA, and doctoral level. He is a member of the editorial boards for several important journals that publish articles on leadership theory and research. His own publications include many articles on leadership, and he has received a number of awards for best research article, most-cited article, and best convention paper.
