Do You See Me?: What Military and Government Service Taught Me About Leadership, Service, and Integrity - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

"An American success story . . ."
says Marty Walsh, former Secretary of Labor, former Mayor of Boston, new Executive Director, National Hockey League Players Association

From the rural town of Rocky Mount, North Carolina, to the halls of the federal government, Larry Turner refused to remain invisible.

Turner shares the remarkable story of a shy kid from a working-class background who rose through the ranks of the US Army, federal government, and ultimately becoming the second Black Inspector General of the US Department of Labor and one of the nation’s top watchdogs against fraud, waste, and corruption. During a pandemic when unemployment insurance fraud was rampant, he made a difference.

More than a memoir, this story is a powerful call to every overlooked student, first-generation professional, public servant, and quiet leader who has ever wondered whether they belong at the table.

With his own brand of hard-earned wisdom, and tales of racial discrimination, Turner reveals leadership lessons learned along the way from the rural South to the halls of Congress and the White House:

• Why education and mentorship change lives
• What it takes to succeed when no one expects you to
• The behind-the-scenes story of the unprecedented firing of multiple federal Inspectors General under President Trump
• How integrity, resilience, and self-belief survive even in the harshest political environments
• How faith can sustain you, even in the darkest hours

Part leadership book, part personal journey, and part insider account of government at the highest levels, Do You See Me? is an inspiring reminder that success is not reserved for the loudest voices in the room.

Sometimes the people the world overlooks become the ones who change it.
