Why are the best leaders the
ones who are most adept at following? What should we expect of those who have
the privilege of leading? And what may leaders expect of those who follow them?
Drawing upon a military career
spanning more than four decades, General Martin Dempsey, former Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, examines the limits of loyalty, the necessity of
sensible skepticism, and the value of responsible rebelliousness, and explains
why we actually should sweat the small stuff.
No Time for Spectators takes
readers behind the closed doors of the Situation Room, onto the battlefields of
Iraq, and to the East German border at the height of the Cold War. It contends
that relationships between leaders and followers―employers and employees,
politicians and constituents, coaches and athletes, teachers and students―are
most productive when based on certain key mutual expectations.
The book begins from the
premise that life is not a spectator sport. Especially not today, especially
not at a time when issues are so complex, information is so pervasive, scrutiny
is so intense, and the stakes are so high.
No Time for Spectators may not
be the answer to all of our problems, but it is a clarion call for those who
are actually interested in solving them.
