N2  - "This book addresses leadership in public organizations from two perspectives. First, it examines - in detail - the competencies that organizational leaders at all levels need. Second, it offers a comparative review of the theoretical literature on leadership from a public sector perspective. Both of these elements have received remarkably little attention, despite the abundance of materials available for the private sector." - From the Book
