Lead like Ike


There is nothing more that I like then to read books and my favorite types of books are: U.S. history, Biography and leadership books. I never really thought you would be able to find all three subjects in one book. Lead Like Ike a new book by Geoff Loftus gives you all three subjects.
I have read book and seen movies about D-day and about the great men that risked their lives to take that beach. The U.S need that beach and if we could not get it, the war would have maybe gone a different way. Take the beaches at Normandy is what help America win the war in Europe. I never knew that it was lead by a great man in Dwight D Eisenhower (Ike).
Geoff Loftus give 10 Strategic Lessons that he take from what Ike did on D-day. Geoff walks you though those step with history lesson for Ike and how they were use to be successful on D-day. Then Geoff take those same lesson and shows how they can be applied in business leadership.
I found this book the be ever insightful I recommend it to all that are in business, leadership or just want a great read about how D-day was successful.
Thanks to Thomas Nelson for my advance copy of this great book.
