A Higher Standard takes a candid look at the exciting military career of US Army General Ann Dunwoody, who received her fourth star - a rank never before reached by a woman - in her fourth decade of service. From her first command leading 200 soldiers to her final one leading 69,000, Dunwoody reveals the challenges she faced and the changes she initiated by sharing both the smallest moments and the most pivotal events in her career.

great lessons to be learned.

relative to my experience in the military. so many things I wish I could have applied what I learned in this book to the difficulties I never overcame. *slams phone on floor* SO MUCH BULL$@#&!!!

Excellent

This is one of the best leadership books I've read. She not only talks about her life and the military but she gives excellent leadership strategies.

The Heart of Service

Absolutely love hearing the insight and perspective of the female leadership in the military and her journey in leadership. Her viewpoint lessons learned in foundational principles brings appreciation to the distinct honor we have as Americans. Her heart outlines the passion and duty to serve and recognize service members in our community with respect and dignity. I am grateful for this book and hope it encourages other women in leadership.

Great Book about the one part of the Army

This was a Great book about part of the Army we do not alway think about, without supply nothing happen. Gen Ann Dunwoody story was a good, she talk about all the good and problem she had. I have read a lot of books by General and this was a very good talking about her and US Army. It was not all about she a woman. She did talk how worked her way up and about the poeple that help her. In most of the book that I have readed by General they never thought they make it to the top. She worked very hard like all General and she made to the top.

Amazing

Great book
I am a parachute rigger female and I was told by my superiors that they worked with our retired General and made me feel proud to know she shared my same love for the field❤️🇺🇸
Thank you for making the road easy for females in the military.
