Book Description

The Arc of Ambition is aimed at all those who dream of achieving greatness in any field. It is a handbook of lessons derived from the lives of great achievers past and present. The principles of this book come not from conventional psychology (clinical or theoretical) but from life experiences. They are derived from the authors long observation of ambitious people, both past and present in all walks of life. The Arc of Ambition takes us on a journey through the creative process that transforms dreams into reality. Showcasing the life--changing experiences of dozens of contemporary and historical figures from the worlds of business, politics, science and the arts, The Arc of Ambition is an inspirational and practical guide to harnessing your ambition in order to live up to your highest potential and leave a legacy of accomplishment.


"I love this book for at least two big reasons. First, it is original, the first graphic definition of the role of ambition, not only for leadership but for success in life. The second, and related, genius of this book is the range of leaders and high flyers the authors discuss, from Michael Dell to Thomas Jefferson, from Henry Ford to Napoleon. Essential reading for aspiring leaders, from senior executives to undergraduates."

-Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business, University of Southern California, and co-author of Organizing Genius and Co-Leaders.
