It not only captures the spirit of Dale Carnegie's principles, which helped me so much in my career and life, but also the essence of my Working Together Management System - one that I used for over 40 years with tremendous success as the CEO of Boeing and Ford. Leadership starts with the leader's heart. It requires humility, love, service, confidence, and resilience. It involves putting people first, working together, and including everyone. Finally, it's about creating a compelling vision, inspiring others, and achieving amazing results together. Take Command is a blueprint that can help everyone lead with impact and live a happier and more fulfilling life.
