Synopsis:

This is a breezy and sometimes funny kind of leadership book. It uses storytelling to highlight memorable and challenging leadership concepts presented in an easy-to-read fashion. Highlighting epic events like 9/11, Superstorm Sandy, Hurricane Katrina and soldier deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, the author discusses leadership concepts in a straightforward and understandable way. Since there is nothing new under the sun, why are so many leaders confused and baffled in certain situations? Why do leaders have problems making decisions about weather-related events? Why do they blunder when issuing judgments about developments like aggression and power struggles? Why is there always floundering when dealing with pandemics like SARS, Ebola and COVID-19? Why do bad business mergers, economic depressions and massive civil unrest occur, when they very easily could be prevented? These, and many other like-minded questions, are answered in this book. When leaders: •are not selfless, •are not well read or good students of history•do not have a diversified leadership tool box•are fearful of making crucial decisions•do not listen, and/or•are not intelligent (do not have the ability to make associations from two or more unrelated events/situations)……CHAOS inevitably ensues!This book sheds light on these topics and gives you the ammunition to deal with what have become some of life’s biggest challenges.
