How to Take Over the World

Key Takeaways

  • Key principles learned from Hannibal
    • Be hungry for more information and data; look in unconventional places
    • Maximize surprise by choosing the maximally-shocking option
    • Set audacious goals
    • Move fast and decisively
    • Lead by example and share in the hardships of your subordinates
  • The surest way to inspire men is to share their suffering: Great leaders do not stand on a pedestal; they get down in the mud with their people
  • Do not fight a defensive war that you know you cannot win; there are times when a high-risk high-reward strategy is the best option
  • All great generals move with speed; none of history’s greatest generals moved slow – speed was their weapon
  • In war, business, or art, the most effective strategy is often the one that shocks the most
