O ovoj e-knjizi
A study of the leadership style of the incomparable Winston Churchill, by an author who is “as thorough a biographer as he is a business thinker” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
The quintessential twentieth-century leader Winston Churchill skillfully converted crisis into victory, making the boldest of visions seem attainable; even though he sometimes failed audaciously, he embraced his errors and used them to become stronger. In this book, historian Alan Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before: He explores 25 key facets of Churchill’s leadership style and decision-making from his early years as a junior cavalry officer and journalist to his role throughout WWII, and demonstrates how he was able to overcome near-impossible obstacles. Fluidly and engagingly written, each lesson is enlivened with a vivid vignette from Churchill’s life. As always, Axelrod’s penetrating analysis will instruct, inspire, and encourage those who lead business enterprises and other organizations, large and small.
