For two decades, while building Marriott Hotels' international operations, Edwin D. Fuller has demonstrated his leadership ability in dozens of countries around the world. Now he has distilled the lessons of that experience into a series of brief, practical guides to effective leadership. In this one, he warns that leaders should never ask anyone to do what they wouldn't do themselves. “We’re entering a kill zone,” the pilot of the U.S. Army plane, a C-12 Sherpa transport, informed us as we began our descent to the Baghdad Airbase. “It’s going to be a steep drop.” It was. I’d been in war zones before and was prepared, but I could see the anxiety on some of the faces of my team from Marriott, and I made sure to maintain a calm, confident demeanor. The pilot brought us in safely, but nerves were still taut as we donned flack jackets, exited the aircraft, and crossed the tarmac to the heavily armored SUVs that would take us into the city. As I surveyed the body-armored soldiers and contract security guards sporting Glock pistols, I began to relax. I’d been an Army captain serving in the Vietnam War, and I had confidence in the U.S. military’s ability to ensure the safety of my four-member team. Still, it had been many years since Vietnam and being in a combat zone is never a relaxing experience.
Born the youngest of four sons in America’s “royal family,” Edward M. Kennedy was considered the least likely to succeed. His early years seemed to bear out this prognosis. But after being elected to the United States Senate, facing almost unspeakable tragedy, and owning up to his mistakes, Kennedy grew into one of the greatest senators in American history. He was a leader who understood how to forge alliances, build consensus, and get results. The lessons of his life are essential for any leader. The life of Edward “Ted” Kennedy reads like a gripping novel about a man who transforms himself in the crucible of tragedy and emerges triumphant. Ultimately it is a story of redemption, of a man who grew into himself–and became one of the most effective, powerful, and revered leaders in American history. Born February 22, 1932, in Boston, Massachusetts, Edward Moore Kennedy was the youngest of nine children in what is often referred to as America’s “royal family.” He had politics in his blood–both his father, Joseph P. Kennedy, and his mother, the former Rose Fitzgerald, came from prominent Irish-Catholic families long involved in the rough-edged world of Democratic politics in Boston and Massachusetts.
