“Daniel Pittino skillfully intertwines leadership research, case studies, and self-reflection while delivering an engaging and unpretentious read. Few leadership books can claim comprehensive coverage of the field and practice of leadership, so it is unexpected that such a brief textbook has achieved this.”

“Daniel Pittino presents a punchy yet detailed examination of leadership. He brilliantly weaves together research, examples, thoughtful figures, and short exercises to create a succinct book that is well-suited to students, professionals, and executives desiring to know more about leadership. The Concise Leadership Textbook is a masterclass in making progress together with other people—the measure of a good leader.”
