Winston Churchill, CEO: 25 Lessons for Bold Business Leaders - Softcover

Winston Churchill was the quintessential leader of the 20th century--and a perfect subject for Alan Axelrod’s bestselling CEO series. 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. Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before, exploring 25 key facets of Churchill’s leadership style and decision-making, from his early years as a junior cavalry officer to his role in WWII, and demonstrates how he overcame near-impossible obstacles. Fluidly and engagingly written, each lesson is enlivened with a vivid vignette from Churchill’s life. New in paperback.
