Features: Unlike typical autobiographies and memoirs, this book primarily focuses on sharing personal experiences to teach readers how to be outstanding leaders, making it a manual for leaders. In addition to discussing office politics and management, it uses vivid examples to explain how to identify and utilize talent, resolve conflicts among subordinates, and handle crisis situations. The book is both engaging and practical. Upon its publication in the United States, it entered the bestseller lists of The New York Times and Publishers Weekly. The traditional Chinese edition, published in Taiwan, also received rave reviews and is considered a must-read for leaders across various fields. The book details the urgent actions and decisions taken in the aftermath of 9/11, separating readers from the harsh yet trustworthy and effective leadership principles tested under extreme circumstances. Whether facing a disaster or the daily challenges of New York City, managing billions in budget or infrastructure issues, or overcoming complex personnel problems and assembling elite teams, Giuliani's clear and structured approach is equally applicable to managers in different fields. The book is particularly valuable for reference in handling public emergencies.
