Summary

 Kelly Perdew, winner of The Apprentice 2, has what it takes to lead. His secret weapon: the principles he learned at West Point, as a U.S. Army Intelligence officer, and as an Airborne Ranger, principles that he's applied to business with the same firepower determination that makes our military the best on the battlefield.

In the military, there's no margin for error. Wrong decisions are deadly decisions. Likewise, in business, wrong decisions can cost you your job. In Take Command, Kelly gives you an insider look at how business luminaries with military training, such as Donald Trump, Ross Perot, Marty Evans, Bill Coleman, and Roger Staubach, have achieved success through 10 essential principles: duty, impeccability, passion, perseverance, planning, teamwork, loyalty, flexibility, selfless service, and integrity.

Most relevant
I read this book many years after it was published but can say that the principles within are still more relevant than ever.

In today’s world, accountability especially is harder to come by and possessing it is less celebrated than it should be. With Kelly having come from a military background, there is no greater need for accountability and his focus on it is fascinating to read about. I’m glad to see Kelly just as focused on accountability today as he was back then (and the success that this mindset has brought him).

Highly recommend this book for anyone in business.
