Compelling case study on NYC school system. Also: "hire slow, fire fast".

Chapter 10, Crisis As A Leadership Development Opportunity: Build your team and capability before crisis hits. Respond immediately to crisis. Train others in handling next crisis through the current one. Some good examples and case studies here, although the Grupo Salinas examples drags on a bit.

Crisis Judgements: an entertaining chapter full of examples of how leaders at some of the largest global companies dealt with crises situations, both poorly and well.

Chapter 8 is essentially a case study on Strategy Judgements at GE. It was easily the least interesting and least applicable chapter of the book so far. And given Immelt's performance since 2007, the GE strategy laid out here may be lacking.
