Description

LEADERSHIP LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE PEOPLE OF NEWFOUNDLAND, CANADA, IN THE AFTERMATH OF 9/11: DURING TIMES OF ADVERSITY, CHANGE REQUIRES RESILIENCE

Elias Kanaris offers an insider's view of what happened on 9/11 when the plane he was flying on was diverted, alongside another 37 planes, to Gander International Airport due to the terrorist acts in NYC and DC. What the passengers expected was going to be a short layover, turned into five days as they were hosted by the Salvation Army in Newfoundland, Canada.

Kanaris details how the town transformed from 9,300 locals to 16,000 people needing to be housed and feed through three lenses. He reviews it from the locals' viewpoint (fondly referred to as the 'Newfies'), the United Airlines pilot and crew, and other passengers.

Whether you're leading a multinational or leading yourself, Kanaris offers leadership lessons learned from the people of Newfoundland, Canada, in the aftermath of 9/11. In this book, Elias Kanaris takes us through the transition that he and other passengers had to make during this extraordinary time.

What transition do you need to make right now And do you have enough resilience to say, 'I can make it!'

Reviews

"In a time of need there is no better feeling than to know that someone, even a person you had never met before, truly cares about you. This was basically the approach of the citizens of Gander and the surrounding towns for the days that followed September 11, 2001. The needs, worries and care of others became ours. Through it all strangers became friends and then became family to us." -Claude Elliott, Former Mayor - Town of Gander

"Having known Elias now for nearly a decade and having followed his incredible work with the Global Speakers Federation, I am confident that the lessons he learned those five days in Newfoundland will point you to a powerful philosophy of values-based, people-centric, servant leadership." -Mark Cole, CEO/President of The John Maxwell Enterprise
