Based on research by the Gallup Leadership Institute, a proven program for developing valuable leadership ability, both in yourself and in others

Extensive research has identified specific traits that transform average individuals into authoritative, influential, and "authentic" leaders. These authentic leaders learn from the mistakes and successes of themselves and others and build a positive strength initiative within their organizations.

In The High Impact Leader, Gallup veterans Bruce Avolio and Fred Luthans show you what you can do to develop and leverage your own leadership strengths into positive, lasting improvement for both yourself and your organization.

Their findings combined with examples of wellknown leaders in action--such as Howard Schultz, of Starbucks, and Microsoft''s Bill Gates--provide guidelines for accelerating leadership development in any environment. Building on Gallup''s innovative "positive strengths" initiative, this results-driven book provides:

The 12th edition of International Management: Culture, Strategy, and Behavior takes a user-friendly, well-balanced approach in covering all the critical dimensions and the interdependencies between them. This edition covers environment and OB/HRM over three chapters each, along with Culture and Strategy getting their own four chapters. The text also emphasizes a balance of research and application. The 12th edition has been updated to reflect how the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged the fundamental assumptions about how international business is conducted. The authors also incorporated coverage of emerging markets that are facing a high level of stress and how the development of new technology, such as artificial intelligence and robotics, will result in fundamental changes to the global job market. 

This edition also marks the addition of a new author, Ajai Gaur, a Professor of Strategy and International Business at Rutgers University. Ajai brings subject expertise in global business strategy, emerging markets, institutions, and a range of other topics. He also has deep ties and links to East and South Asia and helps to further "globalize" the book.
