Cuneo gives timeless lessons in core competencies like leadership fundamentals, company values and culture, change management, crisis leadership, and self-maintenance, each supported with narratives and case studies from Peter’s experience atop the world’s corporate ranks and as a Navy officer.Written with six-time New York Times bestselling author Joe Garner, whom Larry King once called the "Ken Burns of the written and recorded word," Superhero Leadership is a masterclass in leadership from an industry titan. It’s a must-read for anyone aspiring to unleash their inner superhero and become a leader who inspires loyalty, drives success, and empowers others to reach their full potential.
