This book examines, for the first time, Churchill's executive side. Here he's portrayed not as a mythic historical figure but rather as a role model for today's executives and managers. With wit and insight, historian Steven F. Hayward reveals Churchill's secrets for business success--from assembling and inspiring a first-rate team for preparing a wise budget, from communicating a vision to structuring effective meetings, from acting decisively to rebounding from failure. Hayward concludes each chapter with a brief summary of the extraordinary lessons learned.

Steven F. Hayward is the F. K. Weyerhaeuser Fellow at AEI.
