From Blackstone chairman and CEO Stephen A. Schwarzman comes a long-awaited book that draws on impactful episodes from his life to guide readers in building, transforming, and leading successful organizations. Whether you're a student, entrepreneur, philanthropist, or executive, the lessons within are universally applicable.
