{"product_id":"the-leaders-bookshelf","title":"The Leader's Bookshelf","description":"A leadership guide drawn from the books that shaped America’s top military officers.\nFor the last several years Adm. James Stavridis and his co-author, R. Manning Ancell, have surveyed over two hundred active and retired four-star military officers about their reading habits and favorite books, asking each for a list of titles that strongly influenced their leadership skills and provided them with special insights that helped propel them to success in spite of the many demanding challenges they faced. The Leader‘s Bookshelf synthesizes their responses to identify the top fifty books that can help virtually anyone become a better leader.\nEach of the works―novels, memoirs, biographies, autobiographies, management publications―are summarized and the key leadership lessons extracted and presented. Whether individuals work their way through the entire list and read each book cover to cover, or read the summaries provided to determine which appeal to them most, The Leader‘s Bookshelf will provide a roadmap to better leadership.\nHighlighting the value of reading in both a philosophical and a practical sense, The Leader‘s Bookshelf provides sound advice on how to build an extensive library, lists other books worth reading to improve leadership skills, and analyzes how leaders use what they read to achieve their goals. An efficient way to sample some of literature‘s greatest works and to determine which ones can help individuals climb the ladder of success, The Leader‘s Bookshelf is for anyone who wants to improve his or her ability to lead―whether in family life, professional endeavors, or within society and civic organizations.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1682471799\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1682471799.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Stavridis, James G.|Ancell, Robert M.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Pages are clean with no markings.
