The verdict on our first MBA President still out
(although many readers of this blog have probably decided). It will be interesting to
see how the history books treat this in ten years.

HarperCollins 1992). Still in print, but also widely available used. As with any book on mangement, you have to read this book critically, but I find its insights challenging and relentlessly useful. I’m planning to reread it again in the coming month, and if I have anything useful to report, I’ll post it on this blog.

So I did a quick search and found his website and The Leader to Leader Institute, which seems to be a repository of his thinking as it applies to nonprofit and volunteer groups.

Since he seems to have written something just shy of a gazillion books and articles in the last 60 years, Dan, can you make any recommendations?
