First In, Last Out: Leadership Lessons From the FDNY

What
does it take to lead people into a burning building? How do the leaders
of the New York City Fire Department develop so much loyalty, trust and
grace under pressure that their subordinates will risk their very lives
for them?

As a high-ranking officer of the FDNY, John Salka is an expert at both practising and teaching high-stakes leadership. In First In, Last Out,
he explains the department’s unique strategies and how they can be
adopted by leaders in any field – as he has taught them to organizations across the United States. In a tough-talking, no-nonsense style, Salka uses
real-world stories to convey leadership imperatives. Illustrated by
harrowing real-life situations, the principles in First In, Last Out will help managers become more confident, coherent, and commanding.
