504 0 0 |a In leadership can be taught, Sharon Daloz Parks invites to step into the classroom of Harvard leadership virtuoso Ronald Heifetz and his colleagues to experience a dynamic type of leadership and a corresponding mode of learning called "case-in-point". This unique approach utilizes students' own experience-and the classroom environment itself-as a "studio-laboratory" for working through the types of challenges people actually face in today's workplace. In this setting, failures become active experiments not just in learning but in living leadership. As Heifetz teaches it, leadership is not about weilding power and authority. It is about mobilizing people to make progress on the tough, adaptive challenges that make or break organization, communities, and societies.
