“The best aspects of this book are the sections on teamwork and communication and diversity and multicultural leadership. The strength of this book is the author's ability to connect leadership questions to healthcare professionals. Its design is user friendly and the presentation specific, using questions as chapter titles. It enables readers to link to a section based on their own experiences and questions they have. While I have been exposed to some of these theories, none has ever been presented in a way that relates directly to healthcare administration.” -Jeremy Marra, MS, BS, Doody's Book Review Service
