Stewart W. Husted,
George C. Marshall: Rubrics of Leadership is not an
ordinary biography of World War II legend George C. Marshall; the focus
here is specifically upon the factor within him that made him a unique,
exceptional, and supremely competent leader. Featuring a foreword by
General J.H. Binford Peay, III and a prologue by General Colin Powell,
George C. Marshall: Rubrics of Leadership examines Marshall's
talent for managing and planning the impossible, how he built a winning
team and maintained morale, transformed crisis into success, engaged in
conflict resolution and negotiation, devoted his life to selfless
service, and much more. An eye-opening portrait of Marshall's
strengths and positive qualities, and especially his personal
exemplification of the best in human leadership.
