In the Light of Islamic Heritage and the American Experience

The “Principles of Leadership” by Dr. Yusuf Bin Uthman Al-Huzaim is based on empirical research that the author has conducted over a period of two decades.

The author’s attempt is to expound the very essence of leadership qualities derived from the similarities based on Western notions and the general trends found within the Islamic culture.

The scholarly work divulges information “in the light of Islamic heritage and American experience”, as the subtitle of the book says. The first edition of the book published by Darussalam in July 2011 advocates the need for development and promotion of Arab leaders while incorporating leadership qualities based on contemporary Western and Islamic principles.

Dr. Al-Huzaim, a doctorate degree holder in Economic Philosophy and emeritus professor of Saudi Economics at Yamamah College and professional trainer in leadership, has written 10 books, the most prominent of which include Fifteen Principles of Leadership of King Abdulaziz and Fundamentals of Leadership.
