Whether for military or corporate leaders, this book WILL make a difference. Anecdotes from outstanding leaders with real-life examples reinforce
• Self. The need for excellence, valuing mentors and the desire to find the proper balance.
• Team. Clarity in vision and consistency in hiring, firing and empowerment, as well as ensuring accountability.
• Atmosphere. Living a positive example, giving credit where due and generating ongoing enthusiasm by setting the proper short- and long-term goals for your team.
Bob’s rich life experiences are shared throughout the book with entertaining stories that reinforce valuable lessons. His decision-making experience while a fighter pilot, and the outstanding mentors he worked with during that time, all add color to the challenges of leading dynamic organizations. His time as a professor and instructor lend just enough of an academic bent to make the organization of the book easy to read, digestible and organized for later implementation and reference. As a sales representative, sales manager, head of training, architect at the strategic level of a multi-billion dollar organization and CEO of two start-up companies, Bob uses his extensive military foundation and applies it to the challenging world of business. LIFT: Leadership that soars above and beyond is a most enjoyable format for picking up on the critical tasks necessary for today’s leaders.
