Recenzii

"Dr. Sperry is a leader in the use of character assessment in the executive selection process. Overall, I think that Effective Leadership is a winner! An especially attractive aspect of Effective Leadership is the focus on female executives and executive character." -- Paul Lloyd, Ph.D., President, Lloyd & Associates, and Past President of the APA Society of Consulting Psychology
"It is an interesting and intriguing book to read... This author knows his subject and loves it! This is more than just another book on executive coaching; it acknowledges and integrated other practices of promoting and enhancing executive health and performance." -- Maureen E. White, Assistant Director, University of San Francisco, Sacramento Regional Campus
