Demonstrates how these leadership practices can be employed successfully by anyone who has to run anything. Until the 9/11 attacks pushed him into an unwanted role in history, Giuliani was only months away from leaving office as mayor of N.Y. City. In detailing his principles of leadership, he tells captivating stories that are personal as well as prescriptive. Shows how leadership works both ways: it is a privilege, but it carries responsibilities -- from imposing a structure suitable to an org's. purpose, to forming a team of people who bring out the best in each other, to taking unexpected risks. A leader must develop strong beliefs, articulate & act on those beliefs, & be held accountable for the results -- principles Giuliani illustrates throughout this book.

Leadership

<p>The minutes and hours following the 11th September terror attacks on the World Trade Center posed the greatest challenge to governance in New York City's history. Mayor Rudoph Giuliani had barely escaped with his life in the collapse of the first tower. Fires burned furiously near the site as the other buildings verged on collapse and Air Force fighter jets criss-crossed the sky to ward off other attacks. Yet in those moments after the calamity, and in the following days and months, Mayor Giuliani not only steered the city through the crisis, but did so with an assurance and authority that was hailed around the world as a model of courageous leadership. In this book, Giuliani describes vividly the chaos and horror of the twin towers catastrophe, and explains how the rules of management he enforced as Mayor enabled him to gain control of the emergency. These are also the rules, Giuliani makes clear, that anyone in a leadership position - from the head of a large corporation to the owner of a corner shop - can use to inspire others and achieve concrete results.</p>
