'As the author of a new book, Professionalizing Leadership, in which I take on the leadership industry, specifically the often careless and casual way in which we profess to teach how to lead, it gives me particular pleasure to highly recommend Teaching Leadership by Perruci and Hall. Though it's possible to take issue with some specifics, to anyone with any interest in leadership as pedagogical practice, especially but not exclusively at the undergraduate level, I say this book is not to be missed.'
- Barbara Kellerman, Harvard University, US and author of, among others, The End of Leadership, Followership, and Bad Leadership

'This book is a must read for educators and students who want to master the fine art of developing leaders and becoming leaders.'
- Prasad Kaipa, Kaipa Group, US

'Teaching Leadership takes the reader from leadership traits to leadership transformation, and models the pedagogy it professes. Those of us who bridge theory and practice on a daily basis will find the historical, theoretical, and philosophical context in which leadership education, training and development are defined an invaluable prism through which we better understand the why, what and how of leadership. While this book comes close to being the canon we incessantly seek, the authors intentionally avoid this. Instead, they present an integrated complexity of information with glorious clarity. The coalescence of scientific knowledge, philosophical grounding, intentionality, reflection, preparation, thoroughness, program design and evaluation on which Teaching Leadership is based, is a benchmark for best practice in teaching and forming leadership.'

Can we really teach leadership? Yes, we can, and this book provides innovative ways of doing so. It is designed to help educators contribute to their learners’ leadership development by expanding and enhancing their knowledge and competencies through a study of theory, practice and experiential learning. We need effective leaders at all levels of society. The more educators do to prepare leaders to make a positive difference, the better off the world will be. Educators can adjust, adopt, and adapt concrete examples provided in this book to fit their own organizations’ needs.

The authors explore time-tested efforts at linking leadership theory and practice in ways that promote meaningful leadership development for our learners. Starting from ''“why”'' and ''“what”'' about leadership, the book progresses to ''“how”'' to organize teaching leadership. It emphasizes lessons learned as a result of decades of experience in the design, implementation, and evaluation of nationally recognized leadership programs. Each chapter includes reflection questions that allow educators to consider how the content is relevant or can be applied to their own institutional context.

Teaching Leadership is written for educators and practitioners in undergraduate and graduate-level leadership programs, in professional schools, in technical institutes, and in government institutions, as well as for those working in for-profit and not-for-profit organizations.
