Recommendation

In times of great crises, countries turn to uncompromising leaders like George S. Patton. Patton’s knowledge of momentum, morale, timing and tactics made him an almost irrepressible force in World War II, and author Alan Axelrod explains how you can adopt his theories in your own business competition. getAbstract.com recommends this book to anyone in business, including those without a taste for war-themed literature, for its penetrating insights into the mind of an unparalleled leader.

Take-Aways

  • The perception of your troops is critical - They must see you as a good leader.
  • To be an effective leader, you do not have to be liked. Give orders, not suggestions.
  • Making a bad decision is acceptable for a leader - Indecision is not.
