This database includes peer-reviewed journals, business cases and case studies, 52 million company records, working papers from analysis firms, and business news. Its international coverage allows a comprehensive starting point for business research.

Because "Leadership" covers so many different areas, narrowing your search is helpful. You can do this by using the word "AND" to connect "Leadership" with a more specific concept. For example, searching "Leadership AND Communication" will only show you articles that discuss both leadership and communication. This will make your search much more focused and relevant.
