      Every now and then, a person of great wisdom and integrity comes along with a story that everyone needs to hear. Dov Frohman is such a person. As a maverick in the fi eld of technology from the earliest days, Dov has been an innovator, a questioner, a radical, a champion, a sage, a survivor, and above all, a leader. He’s never backed down from responsibility, and he’s faced some hair-raising crises with unconventional methods and achieved undeniable results. Under his guidance, Intel Israel became a key part of the global company’s success and helped make Israel a real player in the world’s high-tech market.  Even if this were solely a book of his personal stories, it would be a very worthwhile read. These stories are highly engaging and provide an insider’s view into one of the most competitive indus-tries in the world, not to mention harrowing tales like his child-hood spent in hiding in Nazi-occupied Holland or his decision to keep Intel Israel open during the fi rst Gulf War, as Scuds were raining down around the country. It was a highly risky and contro-versial move, yet one characteristic of Dov’s commitment to his company and his country.  Fortunately for us, however, this book is much more than a memoir. Dov’s unique experiences have given him a perspective on leadership you won’t fi nd anywhere else, and he’s spent many years refl ecting on the most critical issues any leader or leader-to-be might encounter. This book is like having a personal  mentor—someone who tells the truth about leadership, the good and the bad, the easy calls, and the thorny dilemmas. Dov has stood in the trenches, weathered the loneliness along with the accolades, and really dug deep into the role, and now we the readers get the benefi t of his insights, which are by no means rote and always authentic. We rarely see this kind of transparency from our  leaders, so take advantage of it while you can.
