Against the Tide: Rickover’s Leadership Principles and the Rise of the Nuclear Navy
I have become obsessed with Hyman Rickover.
This unlikely leader went against all odds to lead the United States to become a nuclear submarine world power and on this journey he developed leadership strategies that are essential for any leader. He profoundly influenced the life of President Jimmy Carter, putting Carter on a path of success for leadership. He once said about the importance of reading, “ the thoughts and life’s work of a great man are available to us”.
American Desperado: My Life–From Mafia Soldier to Cocaine Cowboy to Secret Government
This book is a wild ride; its quite the exploration of what is possible in America and the extremes of human behaviors.
Remember Mark Twain once said, “ a person who does not read good books has no advantage over someone who does not read”, so get out there and explore.
