Leadership In The Time Of Chaos Kindle Edition

ABOUT THE BOOK:Leadership in the Time of Chaos is both a memoir and a survival manual, set against one of the most devastating days in Beirut's history. On August 4. 2020, a massive explosion tore through the city, crippling infrastructure and flooding the American University of Beirut Medical Center with casualties. In the middle of it all was COO Raed Rafeh-just one month into his role-forced to keep the hospital running as the city outside descended into chaos.Told with unflinching candor and gripping detail. Rafeh's account reveals the split-second decisions, improvised solutions, and quiet acts of courage that held a fractured system together. It's a story of leading without a rulebook, of finding clarity in uncertainty, and of the ordinary people who became extraordinary when it mattered most. By the final page, one question lingers; when chaos strikes, will you be ready to lead?ABOUT THE AUTHOR:Raed Rafeh never imagined he'd be at the center of one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in history.
