Orrin Woodward's Top Bios: Churchill by Martin Gilbert

The third biography is here.  Gather around and hear what Orrin Woodward has to say about Winston Churchill.  Orrin Woodward is the best selling co-author of Leading the Consumer Rebellion and Launching the Leadership Revolution.  Orrin is doing a best books series to help all of us improve our libraries and our thinking. Here is Orrin's review:

Churchill: A Life by Martin Gilbert

One of the best biographies I have read in my life was this classic from Martin Gilbert on Winston Churchill.  Winston overcame so many obstacles in his life that it is inspiring to anyone going through challenges of their own.  Winston’s dad never respected or thought much of the potential of young Winston and his mom was distant and uninvolved.  Thanks to a great nanny and a vivid imagination Winston overcame these early difficulties.  Winston was active in so many points of history from the Boer war, WWI, Parliamentary politics, and his defining moment WWII.  Many have called Winston the greatest Englishman of the twentieth century and I would concur.  Winston’s speeches during the war were said to be worth a whole battalion of men on the field.  Mr. Churchill’s courageous stand against Hitler during the Battle of Britain will stand as the definition of courage under fire.  Anyone interested in developing their ability to overcome setbacks and learn more on the subject of leadership ought to own and read a copy of this book.

Orrin Woodward Reviews American Caesar - William Manchester

Look what’s here!  Right here!  Orrin Woodward has reviewed his next pick as one of the top biographies he has read.  Orrin Woodward and Chris Brady are the best selling author team and Orrin is going through his library full of books to give us the cream of the crop.

American Caesar by William Manchester

American Caesar is a book on General Douglas MacArthur one of the best generals and leaders in American history.  William Manchester’s book stirs the soul and places you inside of the General’s head while working through critical issues.  The beauty of this book is by the end you feel you knew General MacArthur personally and were pulling for him despite his faults.  The General was not a perfect man; however, if you were looking for someone to make a decision and back it up with full commitment then he was your guy. 

America

needs more people with honor that will do right regardless of the cost.  Douglas MacArthur was unyielding in struggles and magnanimous in victory.  He is credited with helping the Japanese recover after WWII and keeping them out of the communist umbrella.  No library is complete without a copy of American Caesar.

Orrin Woodward Co-Authors Second Book

On the heals of his best-selling book debut just a year ago, author Orrin Woodward has done it again.  Collaborating with his business partner Chris Brady, the Internet entreprenuers have released a book they claim will cover the "Science" and the "Art" components of leadership, and will offer leadership insights to new and experienced leaders alike.

Admittedly, that's a tall order.  But Orrin Woodward and Chris Brady's first book rocketed to best-seller status in only a year, and it appears they are on their way to another blockbuster already.  The question is, does this book break new ground?  Isn't the field of leadership inundated with writers claiming to be the end-all on the subject? 

Mr. Woodward and Mr. Brady claim otherwise.  This latest book boasts a look at leadership from the perspective of "two businessmen who must live these principles every day."  While that statement by the authors may be a tongue-in-cheek snub to those who write about leadership without executive experience, it is certainly true that these two men have the requisite experience.  I'll leave it to the reader to determine if the authors break new ground with their work. 

In my opinion, the Art vs. Science organization is fresh and seemingly accurate.  But my favorite part is the chapter on mentoring (Chapter 9, which is actually called "Developing Leaders").  Time will tell what their readership across the country thinks. At any rate, no one can deny that Woodward and Brady have compiled a jam-packed book full of research and insights.  I predict that the book will do even better than their first one. 

On an additional note, there are two new blogs up apparently dedicated to each of Mr. Woodward and Mr. Brady's books.  http://leading-the-consumer-rebellion.blogspot.com/
