Amazing leadership stories that can inspire us all.
Embark on a riveting journey through the lens of brave men from the military and their tales of courage, leadership and resilience with "Lead From The Front." Over the past 5 years, the authors, both corporate executives, travelled across India in search of stories that bring some basic leadership principles to life. Written in easy-to-understand text, these stories both entertain and inspire.
From the daring exploits of a company commander in the jungles of Kupwara to the profound insights of a fighter pilot leading the Balakot bombing mission, each tale unravels lessons applicable far beyond the battlefield. Learn how two air force officers got together to lead an audacious mission to reactivate the Daulat Beg Oldie airstrip in the impossible terrain in Leh, an operation where they felt it was better to seek forgiveness than permission. Get motivated by the story of a young army captain who was willing to sacrifice his life to save the lives of two little Manipuri children in a far-off Northeast village. And laugh with an army officer as he reflects on the mistakes he made while overenthusiastically pursuing an intelligence lead in a Kashmiri village.
Join us on an unforgettable journey celebrating triumphs, learning lessons, and sharing laughter through these nine stories that can inspire all of us to “Lead From The Front.”
