Leaders: Myth and Reality

內容簡介

內容簡介 國際知名暢銷書《美軍四星上將教你打造黃金團隊》作者史丹利‧麥克利斯托打破傳統，認清成為領導者的真相，挖掘及學習最真實及實用的領導力美軍退秀四星上將史丹利‧麥克利斯托曾服役超過34年。服役期間他和無數領導者合作，卻經常思考同一個問題：什麼要素才能令領導人更強大？他發現這個問題根本沒有簡單的答案。書中麥克利斯托分享30位全球各領域的領導者，橫跨企業執行長、政治家到革命家等。透過他們成功的故事分享領導力如何有效運作，挑戰人們重新思考領導力的神話。他以《希臘羅馬英豪列傳》為範本，分享幾位非傳統模式而發展異常成功的領導者，包括：● 華特‧迪士尼和可可‧香奈兒都以超乎尋常的方式建立了自己的王國，兩人的公眾形象和私下生活皆有強烈對比。● 政治家馬克西米連·羅伯斯比爾於18世紀協助塑造法國大革命的形成；伊斯蘭教激進份子阿布·穆薩布·扎卡維則在21世紀引發聖戰等叛亂。從兩位領導者的身上可吸取動機和說服力的驚人成果。● 19世紀紐約黑幫特威得老大和20世紀的柴契爾夫人則走向非尋常的道路，將團隊推向巔峰。● 馬丁‧路德和小馬丁‧路德‧金皆是神職人員，從謙卑的生活背景竄起，且領導徹底改變世界的重大革命。無論你是團隊一員或是必須對整個國家負責，本書都將能成功幫助你評估自我的領導力。 The bestselling author of Team of Teams dismantles the Great Man theory of leadership, by profiling leaders whose real stories defy their legends.Retired four-star general Stan McChrystal has studied leadership his whole adult life, from his first day at West Point to his most recent work with the corporate clients of the McChrystal Group. In this follow-up to his bestsellers My Share of the Task and Team of Teams, McChrystal explores what leadership really means, debunking the many myths that have surrounded the concept. He focuses on thirteen great leaders, showing that the lessons we commonly draw from their lives are seldom the correct ones.These include:Founders: Walt Disney built his empire thinking he was a man of the people, but was actually a bit of a tyrant to the working man. Coco Chanel hid her humble background to pretend she was an aristocrat, but was obsessed with making clothes for the common people.Zealots: Maximilien Robespierre whipped his revolutionaries into a frenzy through his writing, while Abu Musab Zarkawi moved on the front lines of the battlefield, winning over his followers through his personal charisma.Powerbrokers: Margaret Thatcher and Boss Tweed, whose respective reigns depended on the networks they cultivated.Other leaders profiled include geniuses Albert Einstein and Leonard Bernstein, reformers Martin Luther and Martin Luther King, Jr., and heroes Harriet Tubman and Zheng He.Ultimately, McChrystal posits that different environments will require different leaders, and that followers will choose the leader they need. Aspiring leaders will be best served not by cultivating a standard set of textbook leadership qualities, but by learning to discern what is required in each situation.
