LEAD-ER-SHIP

About this book

William Canary's career has taken him from the rough-and-tumble of New York politics to the inner workings of the George H. W. Bush White House to responsibility for maintaining the transportation infrastructure in the critical days following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

Along the way, he learned important lessons about setting goals, achieving results, and inspiring 100 percent commitment and dedication from employees.

In Lead-Er-Ship, Canary uses his own real-life case studies and page-turning narratives to share insights and philosophies with a new generation of leaders eager to make a difference and take charge.

Canary's proven principles revolve around six simple words: No reserves. No retreats. No regrets.

Within these pages, you will learn baseline concepts like displaying courage in the face of fear, learning the value of relentless preparation, inspiring others through acts of kindness and humility, and taking great risks in order to achieve even greater rewards.

Learn how to thrive in stressful situations, convince others to follow you even when all goes wrong, and embrace the belief that getting something you have never had often requires doing something you have never done.

Canary stresses the hard fact that leadership is often lonely. No matter how many members are on your team, the difficult decisions and hard choices can only be made by you--and you are alone.

Gathered from Canary's firsthand interactions with US presidents and their advisers, Fortune 500 CEOs, governors and lawmakers, celebrities and authors, the lessons in Lead-Er-Ship provide the waypoints to set your GPS toward success as a leader.

So let's begin this journey together.
