Long recognized as one of the best CEOs of the 20th century, Bill George has quickly become one of the foremost authorities on leadership—a wise, no-nonsense author with a large, growing following. This latest book is an excellent practical account of why so many corporate leaders failed and yet others turned crisis into opportunity—and how you can apply those lessons to your own leadership.
