My Share Of The Task by General S Mcchrystal

My Share Of The Task by General S Mcchrystal

"General McChrystal is a legendary warrior with a fine eye for enduring lessons about leadership, courage, and consequence." -Tom Brokaw

General Stanley McChrystal is widely admired for his hunger to know the truth, his courage to find it, and his humility to listen to those around him. Even as the commanding officer of all U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan, he stationed himself forward and frequently went on patrols with his troops to experience their challenges firsthand.

In this illuminating New York Times bestseller, McChrystal frankly explores the major episodes and controversies of his career. He describes the many outstanding leaders he served with and the handful of bad leaders he learned not to emulate. And he paints a vivid portrait of how the military establishment turned itself, in one generation, into the adaptive, resilient force that would soon be tested in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the wider War on Terror.

After thirty-four years in the US Army, STANLEY McCHRYSTAL retired as a four-star general. My Part of the Work and Team of Teams, two of his previous books, were both New York Times bestsellers. He is a partner with the McChrystal Group, a leadership consulting firm based in Virginia, and a senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Center for Global Affairs. JEFF EGGERS was a US Navy SEAL for twenty years and then worked for the White House as a special assistant to the president for National Security Affairs. The McChrystal Group Leadership Institute now has him as its executive director. JASON MANGONE served in the US Marine Corps for four years before working at the Aspen Institute, the Service Year Alliance, and the NYC Department of Veterans' Services.
