Scaling Leadership

Acknowledgments

We would like to acknowledge four people who played a huge part in the development of this book. First, Lani Van Dusen, the Executive Director of the Worldwide Institute for Research and Evaluation (WIRE). Lani and her team conducted all the research behind this book. Her professional competence and high ethical research standards have greatly contributed to this book. Second, Peter Economy worked with us to author this book. Peter's writing and editing helped this book immensely. It is a far more focused and readable book because of Peter. Third, our graphic designer, Zoie Young, who artistically created the cover and all the figures throughout this book. And finally, Scott Anderson, who provided all the project management support for the book. He kept us on track (no small task) and managed all the details that it takes to pull a book like this together. We are grateful to all of you for your professionalism and passion.
