Churchill on Leadership: Executive Success in the Face of AdversityPaperback, 1 September 1998

This book examines, for the first time, Churchill's executive side. Here he's portrayed not as a mythic historical figure but rather as a role model for today's executives and managers. With wit and insight, historian Steven F. Hayward reveals Churchill's secrets for business success - from assembling and inspiring a first-rate team for preparing a wise budget, from communicating a vision to structuring effective meetings, from acting decisively to rebounding from failure. Hayward concludes each chapter with a brief summary of the extraordinary lessons learned.
