Faculty Bookshelf: Practical Leadership Guide

Practical Leadership Guide published

The Kellogg Practical Leadership Guide is a series of articles that draws on the latest research and practical insights of many top Kellogg School faculty, written to provide valuable frameworks for managers. Articles on a range of topics, including leadership and strategy, planning and organization, and execution and operations are available on the Alumni Web site.

The introductory article in the series, "Personal Reflections on Leadership," by adjunct professor Harry Kraemer, introduces key components of a "value-based leader." With additional topics such as hiring and firing executives, delegating responsibilities and improving process performance, alums should find the series stimulating and useful.

The series is made possible by Kellogg Faculty, the Office of Development and Alumni Relations, and students Sam Mehta '05, Gordon Hilbun, Adeel Kheiri and Parth Mehrotra (all Class of 2006), with the support of the Office of the Dean and the Business Leadership Club.
