"An insightful book...[one of the] leadership classics."--Chicago Tribune "Full of insights and illuminating detail.... Effective leaders put words to the formless longings and deeply felt needs of others. They create communities out of words. In Leading Minds, Gardner shows that he is just such a leader, able to articulate and clarify what many of us have been thinking on the subject for a long time."--Warren Bennis, Harvard Business
