Following "Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun", which offered humorous business advice to individuals, this sequel applies Attila's wisdom and lessons to the problems of leadership in organizations. Again relying on Attila's concise maxims ("The essence of risk-taking is acting without assurance that you have all the relevant facts"), the book shows not only how to establish successful management with an organization, but how to lead an entrepreneurial organization (the Huns) against a giant, entrenched competitor (the Romans). The topics range from cultivating allies to practical dreaming and dodging arrows.

Seller's Description:
The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly. All pages and cover are intact (including the dust cover, if applicable). Spine may show signs of wear. Pages may include limited notes and highlighting. May NOT include discs, access code or other supplemental materials.
Good for whetting your appetite to learn more about Attila, but a little smarmy for my taste. Not up to the first book. Found myself skipping over the management narrative to the get at the historical parts.
