I got a new book today from DND on the future of leadership in the Canadian Forces. My library gets all of their publications, but the timing of this one is kind of hilarious.

Oh hey! Whereyabin? Never mind, I know.

I've noticed loads of books on leadership coming out of the DND or associated publishers in the last few years. They may run out of soldiers, but they'll probably never run out of jacks-in-office.

The leadership bibliography book is now a few years old - I'm hoping they revise that, it's always popular with our patrons and students.

It seems that we get one a month or nearly so, on leadership in/for someplace/someone/somewhere... interesting. That's someone's PhD thesis,that is.
