It Worked for Me: In Life and Leadership

It Worked for Me is a collection of lessons and personal anecdotes that have shaped four star-general and former Secretary of State Colin Powells legendary career in public service. At its heart are Powells 13 Rules,-notes he accumulated on his desk that are now the basis for his leadership presentations throughout the world. Powells short-but-sweet rules such as Get mad, then get over it and Share credit, are illuminated by revealing personal stories that introduce and expand on his principles for effective leadership: conviction, hard work, and above all, respect for others. In work and life, Powell writes, It is the human gesture that counts.
