"Stephen Mansfield possesses a God-given mantle of leadership--historically and Biblically. I feel these strengths are expressed in his book Never Give In, which details the life of England's brave knight who possessed and practiced the virtues that embody a truly great leader." -- John S. Wilder, Lieutenant Governor and Speaker of the Senate, State of Tennessee

Synopsis
What was it that made Winston Churchill one of the most extraordinary leaders of the 20th century? What enabled him to inspire nations while those around him were losing hope? This book is a remarkable study of Churchill's leadership and character, and it provides the answers to these and many other questions that people continue to ask about this remarkable man., Winston Churchill is one of the most extraordinary leaders the tumultuous 20th century produced. What was it that enabled him to see so clearly when those around him seemed to be so blind? In this remarkable new study of Churchill's leadership skills, Stephen Mansfield produces an inspirational account of the man whose shadow fell large across the world stage half a century ago., Winston Churchill was one of the most extraordinary leaders of the twentieth century. What was it that enabled him to stand so steadfastly when all those around him seemed to turn back in fear? What was it that enabled him to inspire whole nations to endure the unendurable and to achieve the unachievable when all those around him had already surrendered all hope? This remarkable new study of Churchill's leadership skill answers these questions and more. The result is an account that is as inspiring today as it was more than half a century ago when the great man' shadow fell large across the world stage. According to Henry Kissinger, "Our age finds it difficult to come to grips with Churchill. The political leaders with whom we are familiar generally aspire to be superstars rather than heroes. The distinction is crucial. Superstars strive for approbation; heroes walk alone. Superstars crave consensus; heroes define themselves by the...future they see it as their risk to bring about. Superstars seek success in a technique for eliciting support; heroes pursue success as the outgrowth of their inner values." Winston Churchill was a hero., Winston Churchill was one of the most extraordinary leaders of the twentieth century.

Winston Churchill was a hero., Churchill: A Giant Among Leaders According to Henry Kissinger, "Our age finds it difficult to come to grips with Churchill. The political leaders with whom we are familiar generally aspire to be superstars rather than heroes. The distinction is crucial. Superstars strive for approbation; heroes walk alone. Superstars crave consensus; heroes define themselves by the judgment of a future they see it as their task to bring about. Superstars seek success in a technique for eliciting support; heroes pursue success as the outgrowth of their inner values." Winston Churchill is a hero. In this incisive look at his leadership in action, we see what it was that enabled him to do what few others have ever accomplished in the long annals of history: stand for principle and prevail.
