"Marc and Samantha Hurwitz are making the next important development in leadership and followership studies - weaving the behaviors of the leader and follower roles into a collaborative relationship that drives effective teams and organizations. This integrative approach will be of great interest to performance at both ends of the leader-follower dynamic." -- Ira Chaleff, author, 'The Courageous Follower' "This book is wise and entertaining. It blends research, theory, and fascinating stories from practice that can help us all to become better leaders - and followers. It is a book to read, and then read again." -- Dennis Tourish, Professor of Leadership and Organisation Studies, Royal Holloway, University of London; author, 'The Dark Side of Transformational Leadership' "What a gift! This book fills a void that needed filling in the discussion about leadership. And it is done with solid research and practical application." -- Barry Johnson, author, 'Polarity Management' "'Leadership Is Half the Story' is a breath of fresh air. In this very readable book, Samantha and Marc Hurwitz introduce dozens of innovative and useful insights about the dynamics of effective leadership and followership. But it delivers much more than just theory. It offers practical tips, exercises, and methods for implementing more productive, more creative, and more rewarding collaboration skills. I've read hundreds of business books. Most are rehashes. This is a game-changer." -- Tim Hurson, author of the global bestseller 'Think Better 'and co-author 'Never Be Closing'
