Wess Roberts
Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun
Warner Books, 1985
Was ist drin?
A guide to how real leaders stand out from the horde when everyone else is acting like a barbarian.
Recommendation
Wess Roberts draws on the life experiences of the leader of the Mongol hordes to craft imaginative monologues on leadership - an attribute as valuable today as when Attila united the Huns in 415 AD. The advice is general. Its effectiveness probably depends on how well you apply it, although the idea of an historic icon of barbaric vengeance counseling us in cultural sensitivity seems a bit of a stretch. While the treatment is certainly colorful, you might worry about ways some modern-day chieftains could misuse Roberts’s principles to justify their own Visigoth approach to management. getAbstract recommends this book to those looking for new and interesting ways to approach the perpetual management issues of building teams, inspiring loyalty, setting goals and achieving objectives.
