One of the things she knows is that leaders don't lead by lecturing, but by acting. And so rather than writing a textbook that tells you how to become a leader, she has written a workbook that shows you. Choosing Leadership doesn't ask you to read it--it asks you to participate in it." --<b>Daniel Gilbert, </b> Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and author, <i>Stumbling on Happiness</i> <p/> "This workbook is a tool that everyone--from undergraduate and graduate students to executives--will benefit from when striving to become their best selves and perform up to their potential." --<b>Sian Beilock, </b> president, Barnard College, and author, <i>Choke</i> and <i>How the Body Knows Its Mind</i> <p/> "Instead of focusing on stories of others' leadership, Linda Ginzel has written a book about your development as a leader. Filled with self-diagnostic, developmental exercises based on Ginzel's many years as a leadership teacher, this book promises to change people's thoughts and behaviors in profound ways." --<b>Jeffrey Pfeffer, </b> Thomas D. Dee II Professor of Organizational Behavior, Stanford Graduate School of Business, and author, <i>Leadership BS: Fixing Workplaces and Careers One Truth at a Time</i> <p/> "For a very low price, Ginzel will take you on a journey where you make your own choices about creating effective leadership actions. She will not make you a leader. Rather, she will guide you to choices that will allow you to lead--and to lead effectively. Ginzel uses ample behavioral science in the journey, but the unique contribution of this book is her passion for providing you a pathway to make great choices about whether, when, and how to lead." --<b>Max H. Bazerman, </b>Jesse Isidor Straus Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School, and author, <i>The Power of Noticing</i> <p/> "Linda Ginzel has brought social psychological concepts and tools that she has created to countless audiences. As a result, many of her students have greater access to their unique leadership qualities. This workbook opens this path for personal development to a much larger audience. And it's doable!" --<b>Harry L. Davis, </b> Roger L. and Rachel M. Goetz Distinguished Service Professor of Creative Management, University of Chicago Booth School of Business <p/> "According to Ginzel, leaders create a different future. And she walks her readers through an intentional journey for learning how to do that. Soulful, pragmatic, and scientifically grounded, this book will change your future." --<b>Sally Blount, </b> dean, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Linda Ginzel, PhD, is a clinical professor of managerial psychology at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business and the founder of its customized executive education program.
