First In, Last Out by John Salka, Barret Neville & Dennis Smith Book Summary

What does it take to lead people into a burning building? How do the leaders of the New York City Fire Department develop so much loyalty, trust, and grace under pressure that their subordinates will risk their very lives for them? 
As a high-ranking officer of the FDNY, John Salka is an expert at both practicing and teaching high-stakes leadership. In First In, Last Out, he explains the department’s unique strategies and how they can be adopted by leaders in any field—as
he has taught them to organizations around the country. In a tough-talking, no-nonsense style, Salka uses real-world stories to convey leadership imperatives such as: first in, last out—your people need to see you taking the biggest risk, as the first one to

enter the danger zone and the last to leave

manage change—the fire you fought yesterday is not the one you’ll be fighting tomorrow

communicate aggressively—a working radio is worth more than 20,000 gallons of water

create an execution culture—focus your people on the flames, not the smoke

commit to reality—never allow the way you would like things to be to color how things are

develop your people—let them feel a little heat today or they’ll get burned tomorrow

Illustrated by harrowing real-life situations, the principles in First In, Last Out will help managers become more confident, coherent, and commanding.

First in last out. This is the book for fire service leaders. It should be mandatory reading for all officers or those that aspire to be an officer. I have read it 4 times now and keep picking up new things each time. I would give it some extra stars if the computer would allow it. Thank you Chief Salka for sharing the wisdom you have developed over the years.

First in last out. This is a very good book ,it can be used as a tool that can aid in decision making for the fire service or corporate America .
