Be Victorious!: Lessons from World War I for Business and Everyday Life.

On the eleventh of November 2018, we are commemorated the hundredth anniversary of the end of the First World War. Over the last few years, we have heard a lot about that conflict: the causes, the major battles and, especially, the impact on the lives of people at home as well as at the Front.It has been said, however, that the main use for the past is for us to learn from it. So even if you do not take much interest in history, I assure you there are lots of lessons to be learnt from the Great War. Not only for soldiers or politicians. It was a classic case of How Not To Do... lots of things, as well as containing just the odd exceptional example that may be worth copying! I do not want to encourage anyone to be too backward looking, but I believe there are lessons we can all learn from the errors, and even the occasional moment of insight, that we can see in the Great War.Therefore, I am setting out in this book my thoughts on how to apply some of the lessons of that War to management. But let us remember that management cannot be separated from other aspects of life in general, so there will probably be something for almost everyone in this book.
