About this title

Synopsis

General H. Hugh Shelton's unique coffee table book takes a very special look into leadership and values. Through the beautiful black and white portrait photography of NC photographer Simon Griffiths and the book's voices, you'll experience leadership first-hand from 35 men and women with a unique and special North Carolina connection. Readers will learn how leadership impacted pivotal moments in world politics, business, the military, athletics, religion and the arts. Perhaps Mr. William C. Friday, President Emeritus, the University of North Carolina, said it best: 'The leaders that I have known and those with whom I have worked have understood that truth and integrity are fundamentally essential in all aspects of their lives. As you turn the pages of Secrets of Success, you will examine these qualities in the lives of these splendid Americans.'

About the Author

General H. Hugh Shelton's leadership is well documented. He served two tours of duty in Vietnam with the 5th Special Forces Group and the 173rd Airborne Brigade. Following the Gulf War, he commanded the 82nd Airborne Division, led the Joint Task Force responsible for Operation Uphold Democracy in Haiti, and was then promoted to the rank of general and the position of the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Special Operations Command. Later, General Shelton was named the 14th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, where he was principal military advisor to the President, the Secretary of Defense, and the National Security Agency. Following his retirement in 2001, he chose to serve his alma mater, NC State University, by creating the General H. Hugh Shelton Leadership Center.
