LEADERSHIP OR MANAGEMENT BOOKS

BY COMPARISON

In developing the Academy’s Top 10 list of essential books on leadership, we consulted with our
distinguished editorial staff. As learned scholars and able practitioners, they each weighed in with their
various perspectives. It inspired us to look a bit deeper at some comparative lists refecting other points
of view. Beginning with Amazon.com, North America’s mammoth bookseller, to other less well-known
but no less reputable sources, we offer four different lists for readers to review. It is a risky business to
single out the best of anything society has to offer—so much depends on your personal philosophy or
point of view. For what it is worth, see if any of these references have found their way into your library.
