Product Description

This readable book reveals how people can apply the leadership wisdom of Winston Churchill to enhance the quality of their personal and professional lives.
Most people look at a towering leader like Winston Churchill and see a life full of extraordinary achievements. Few, however, realize that his road to greatness was neither straight nor smooth. He had to wage a constant battle with defeats, setbacks, obstacles, and even depression. Churchillís ability to bounce back from difficulties and problems can be traced to a simple formula for success that he practiced his entire life. Using the Churchill Factors - Churchillís best practices involving Leadership - the reader will learn how to: achieve heroic results, harness relentless resolve, and turn adversity into advantage.
The reader will also learn proven strategies for: communicating more effectively, achieving powerful goals, sustaining encouragement in times of trial, building self-esteem, using simplicity and risk to ones advantage, and experiencing a richer, fuller, more productive life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Churchill Book, October 18, 2000
By A Customer
I'm a great admirer of Winston Churchill. This book is not another biography. Rather, I found a clear, understandable explanation of Churchill's leadership formula. This book showed me how to use the Churchill Factors in my life. The goal setting chapters were the best I have found on the subject. I also liked the author's encouragement concerning taking risks and overcoming obstacles.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very helpful book, October 22, 2000

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I am a high school senior who had to write a report on a famous leader. I selected Winston Churchill. I didn't really know much about him but found exactly what I needed in this book. I ordered it online and it arrived three days later! The book told me how I can become a leader. I could identify with some of the problems Churchill had during his life. His life was full of problems but he was still able to be successful. I think this book will help me when I go on to college next year. I already have some new ideas I want to try out at work. I would really recommend this book to others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Powerful book: simple but not simplistic, October 27, 2000
By A Customer
The Churchill Factors: Creating Your Finest Hour was very easy to understand. The message was simple, clear, and practical. Too many self-help books are mumbo-jumbo consultant hype about approaches that never really work. I found this book was honest and extremely usable. Everyone will be able to identify with at least one of the styles in the book. There are several chapters for each one. By applying the Action This Day questions at the end of the chapters helped me to overcome some of the obstacles I deal with at work and at home. I definitely was surprised that this was more than the usual leadership book about a famous person. The Churchill Factors made it easy for me to see why Winston Churchill was such a multi-faceted personality. Everyone would benefit from using his methodology. It's worked for me!
