Be ∗ Know ∗ Do: Leadership the Army Way Adapted from the Official Army Leadership Manual

Praise for Be ∗ Know ∗ Do
"The Army does two things each and every day: it trains its soldiers, and it grows them into leaders. The principles and practices of effective leadership that make the United States Army the greatest landforce in the world are relevant, as well, to civilian organizations–businesses, nonprofit organizations, and governmental agencies."
–from the Introduction by Frances Hesselbein and General Eric K. Shinseki (USA Ret.)
"The Army trains and develops more leaders than do all other institutions together–and with a lower casualty rate. Be, Know, Do shows how this is being done–and how it can be adapted by the nonmilitary: businesses, colleges and universities, nonprofits, and churches."
–Peter F. Drucker
"So you want to be a leader? Be, Know, Do tells you how, through an insightful combination of lessons from the Army’s battle–focused training manual and a series of organizational leadership case studies."
–Regina E. Herzlinger, professor, Harvard Business School, and mother of Captain Alexander Herzlinger, U.S. Army Infantry
"Great leaders develop leaders at all levels who lead with integrity and values, are able to take action, and can make things happen. This book shows us how the very successful U.S. Army leadership development principles, be, know, do, have built one of the world’s most successful leadership pipelines. Anyone who wants to lead well and develop leadership at all levels should read this book."
–Noel M. Tichy, professor, University of Michigan Business School, and author of The Cycle of Leadership (with Nancy Cardwell)
