Eight Keys to Greatness: How to Unlock Your Hidden Potential

Rating:
Summary: One of the best books that i've read
Review: As with his other books, Dr. Landrum doesn't kid around here. He isn't out to psych you up or pump you full of platitudes. He lays it all out, the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to greatness. Then, he not only shows you what it takes to be great, but how to do it. If you're tired of the feel-good fluff out there, give this book a try. While it motivated the hell out of me, some of his stories scared the hell out of me as well. But then, that's the way it is out on the battlefield.

Summary: IF YOU WANT TO BE THE BEST...LEARN FROM THE BEST !
Review: Gene does it again! Not only have his past books kept me alive and kicking, they gave me the actual stories behind the people - to keep me from going insane as I pursued my own dream. Only this time, in a very elegant manner, he has distilled from the stories what actually works.

Summary: Fascinating!
Review: Landrum has figured out 8 key behavioral traits critical to success that the truly great possess -- and says they can be learned. His descriptions of great people according to these traits, such as charisma, self-confidence, drive and intuition are fascinating and illuminating. He doesn't hold back on what the downside of some of these traits are, and some of those descriptions were sobering. A taxonomy of "greatness," it's a wonderful read. It's worth reading just to know that when he considered starting Disneyland, Disney had to go against the recommendations of his Board of Directors and experts such as the Stanford Research Institute. All the reasons they gave why the park would fail, turned out to be the reasons why it succeeded. Uh oh!
