A remarkable book telling business leaders what to do when disaster strikes
The Times
A compelling guide for leaders grappling with the pandemic... the lessons in resilient leadership in turbulent times that Roumani offers are universal.
Pilita Clark, Financial Times
Contains powerful lessons about resilience that show how companies can come out of crises better and stronger if they focus on long-term opportunities, no matter how tough it gets in the short term
Ana Botín, Executive chair, Banco Santander
This man steered his bank through four years of a hellish civil war - and the lessons he learnt will benefit us all. It not only makes every other book on crisis management feel like Harry Potter, but also offers an inadvertently timely guide for those of us living through a different kind of crisis.
Sathnam Sanghera, author of EmpireLand
Don't read this book just for the business lessons. It is a powerful tale of the resilience of a man and a society in the face of enormous threat and massive upheaval.
Tom Hayhoe, Chairman of West London NHS Trust
I'm personally - and professionally - grateful to Louai Al Roumani for writing this book. I hope I never have to live and work in a Warzone, but when we face crises in our lives and our businesses there are useful emotional and practical lessons there is huge value in reading the heartfelt and honest experiences of others. I recommend this book with a grateful heart
