Nigel Bryant is head of drama at Marlborough College.
?Drawing on and integrating a rich and diverse collection of recent research in the management and organizational behavior literature, the author effectively develops a common sense concept of advocacy in organizations. This book should appeal to the academic community, OD practitioners, and employees seeking to grow and enhance their contribution to the organization. This book shows it is not only possible, but highly desirable, to put responsibility, accountability for results, and personal growth where they should be: not with the distant manager but in the hands of all employees with their unique and critical roles. It's an important contribution to the field and an investment that should pay off handsomely in terms of professional growth.?-Personnel Psychology
