Описание: "Luckier Than Most" is the true story of a boy named Harry. As one of the last surviving verterans of WWII, Harry is part of a generation born in the decade following World War I, spent their childhood in great poverty and then, while still in their teens, were sent off to distant lands to fight in the next world war. Raised during the Great Depression, Harry and his family struggled to find a better life, desperately in search of the American Dream and a place to call home. Uprooted 19 times by the age of 16, Harry learned early how to cope with the harsh realities of a chaotic life. His childhood was spent on freight trains and hitchhiking back and forth across country, being sent out to beg for food to feed his family, working the fields of California and living out in the open under an old oak tree. His determination to distance himself from an unhappy childhood led Harry to a life in the United States Army and into two war zones (World War II and the Korean Conflict). Harry's decades-long career in bomb disposal and the U.S. Army Infantry exposed him to more danger than one can imagine. But when it mattered most, good training, luck and God always seemed to be on his side. Having survived an unimaginable childhood, two wars and a dangerous career, Harry was determined to find happiness and by golly, he did It's not always a happy story. In fact, there's an awful lot of heartache between the pages. But even during the bad times, Harry's eternal optimism shines through as does his steadfast belief that life is what you make it. Reading Harry's story - which in many ways is his generation's story - you'll realize why Tom Brokaw called this "The Greatest Generation."
This book is designed to provide tools, strategies, and procedures to assist in empowering not only those who feel the need to increase their effectiveness at changing the world around them, but also to those who feel totally ineffective, powerless, and economically trapped, to change their reality for the better and forever.
We start with Elements of Substantive Leadership as the foundation from which LUCK emerges and examine its exercise by people who are effective because they are experienced at solving difficult problems. We examine Leadership Style as the complement for substance to form the truly effective leader. This is a book about "How" and "Why". It provides tools and techniques to motivate and enable the reader to develop leadership skills that result in the ability to make things happen, to be the essence of effectiveness.
We then set forth Lessons for Life as an Effective Person. Lessons 1 through 9 provide case studies that illustrate Leadership and the use of Protocols for Problem Solving in action against, what many times seem, as impossible odds.
We end by summarizing and promising a future treatise that will describe using these skills to develop economic activity designed to eliminate financial helplessness.
