DJ has slight wear and soiling. Alan Axelrod, Ph.D., (born 1952) is a prolific author of history, business and management books. As of October 2018, he had written more than 150 books, as noted in an online introduction by Lynn Ware Peek before an interview with Axelrod on the National Public Radio station KPCW. Axelrod resides in Atlanta, Georgia. Axelrod received his doctorate in English from the University of Iowa in 1979, specializing in the literature and culture of colonial America and the early republic of the United States. He has taught at Lake Forest College and Furman University, worked as a publishing executive, and has been a consultant to historical museums, cultural institutions, television's Civil War Journal, the WB Network, and the Discovery Channel. This is one of Axelrod's "CEO" series. It examines Theodore Roosevelt--typically ranked among the top five US presidents. This title explores Theodore Roosevelt's leadership skills. Historians typically rank Theodore Roosevelt among the top five presidents. A man of omnivorous interest, Roosevelt was a progressive in social and political issues. Yet he believed wholeheartedly in capitalism; he believed that bold entrepreneurial enterprise and long-established big business were both the great drivers of the American economy, of American greatness. In "Theodore Roosevelt", CEO, Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before, using an engaging, conversational style to explore seven inspirational areas he has identified as constituting Roosevelt's principal leadership lives: the strenuous life, the learning life, the teaching life, the innovative life, the executive life, the political life and the steward's life. Within these areas are 136 lessons interpreted for modern business leadership.
