The preceding quote, taken from the book itself, sums up a refreshing perspective of leadership. The IJBC reader might say "So what?" (to cite one of Dr. Phillip Clampitt's favorite questions) because this book simultaneously targets leadership scholars and professionals. Simply put, Leading with Care in a Tough World: Beyond Servant Leadership, matters to any IJBC reader interested in the positive, ethical co-creation of communication and leadership, both in research and practice. This review explains our evaluation by discussing the book's key premises, architecture, content overview, and inherent value to key stakeholders in business communication.
