Good to Great and the Social Sectors

Author: Jim Collins
Abstract:

Creates a framework for management practices in the social sector not based on business practices. Effective leaders must blend "executive" and "legislative" leadership styles by making decisions by themselves and also persuading and exercising political skills to induce the correct decisions. These leaders must know when to use either style of leadership.
