Editorial Reviews

Review

A superb integration of theory, research, and practical application. This volume sets a new standard of excellence. Each chapter could stand alone as a major addition to our knowledge of this area. -- Naomi L. Quenk, Ph.D., co-author of The Manual: A Guide to the Development and Use of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator

Developing Leaders contains 17 papers by 19 contributors with impressive credentials. Each paper can stand along, though they complement each other. They include new analyses of the functions of MBTI and type dynamics, particularly with other instruments. -- Bulletin of Psychological Type, Summer 1997

Developing Leaders provides cutting edge information, ideas, and application on the MBTI and leadership. It gives important insights into such critical topics as MBTI and midlife, the link with the 360-degree feedback instruments, and strategies for helping executives deal with organizational change. -- Patricia Stocker, Ph.D., Associate Dean and Director of Executive Programs, Maryland Business School, University of Maryland

Drawing on the best of the MBTI research, Fitzgerald and Kirby have given us an excellent tool. Developing Leaders is thought provoking and rewarding. An excellent book! -- William Bridges, author of Managing Transitions and Jobshift

The current book successfully provides numerous up-to-date findings on the MBTI that should be of considerable use to both researchers and practitioners. The editors have done an outstanding job of preparing a well-written and integrated book that utilizes current references, from both psychology and business. In fact, their inclusion of contemporary business issues is quite impressive. -- Personnel Psychology, Summer 1998

The editors have done an outstanding job of preparing a well written and integrated book that utilizes current references, from both psychology and business. Their inclusion of contemporary business issues is quite impressive. For the experienced MBTI user, there are numerous new findings and facts presented which should be beneficial in leadership training. This book should be extremely beneficial and intriguing reading to both MBTI researchers and practitioners. -- Personnel Psychology, Summer 1998

5.0 out of 5 stars In-Depth Information, April 10, 2006
By 
This review is from: Developing Leaders: Research and Applications in Psychological Type and Leadership Development (Hardcover)
I found this book fascinating and very helpful to my practice as an executive coach. I was qualified in the MBTI in October 2005, and was hungry for more information about how to apply it in a business setting. This book has the most targeted, in-depth information I've found yet. It's immediately applicable. A perfect book for people who want to go deeper with the MBTI.
