Inhaltsangabe

Business maverick, political reformer, and one of the most closely watched figures in American business, Dana Mead is renowned the world over for his unconventional, outspoken management style and consummate leadership skills. In this book, Mead looks back over his 40-year career and shares the lessons he's learned about leadership, decision-making, focus, responsibility, balancing profitability and job security, and much more. It is laced with colourful anecdotes from Mead's incredible multifaceted life - amongst other things he was an Army colonel in charge of Private Elvis Presley and a senior domestic policy advisor in the Nixon administration.
