Summary of Choosing the Right Leadership Style: No Single Approach Fits All Situations (HBR Article Collection)

Is it ever possible to achieve significant performance improvement without devoting additional resources to the task? Some companies have found ways to work faster and more productively even while decreasing the necessary inputs of labor and capital. But such examples are rarely lucky coincidences. If you want noticeably better results without spending extra time and money to get them, you've got to make fundamental changes in the way things get done. It takes a special kind of leadership to accomplish such a feat. This collection of articles from Harvard Business Review explores the connections between leadership and performance improvement without settling on a "one-size-fits-all" prescription. The three Harvard Business Review articles in this collection: "What Makes a Leader?" by Daniel Goleman (HBR reprint 98606); "Leadership That Gets Results" by Daniel Goleman (HBR reprint R00204); and "Demand Better Results--And Get Them" by Robert H. Schaffer (HBR reprint 91207).
