In Leadership on the Line, now updated with a new Preface, Ronald Heiftetz and Marty Linsky show how it’s possible to make a difference without getting “taken out” or pushed aside. Through vivid stories from all walks of life, the authors present straightforward strategies for navigating the perilous straits of leadership. Whether you’re a parent or a politician, a CEO or a community activist, this practical book shows how you can exercise leadership and survive and thrive to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
