Based on extensive personal experience working with the public sector Gerald Gabris and Douglas Irkhe argue, in their new book, that the conventional approach to public managerial leadership is outmoded for todaybs business environment. Now more than ever, public organizations need to act nimbly in the face of change, requiring leaders to be creative, visionary and willing to take risks. To improve the effectiveness of public organizations, the authors propose a new approach to leadership based on the concept of leader credibility. Case studies illustrate the practical application of the authorsb theory and research and serve as useful training tools. This book goes a long way to filling the current shortage of relevant material on leadership in the public sector and will be welcomed by public managers, trainers and consultants alike.
