Leader Designed Dana W White

Dana W. White weaves a humorous and compelling narrative of her life and career from small-town Virginia to the marble halls of Capitol Hill, the skyscrapers of Hong Kong, and the quartiers of Paris, France. She also shares pivotal lessons on leadership she learned from her grandfather, the publisher of her hometown's only black newspaper, who continued working into his nineties, and other family members, friends, and individuals. At sixteen, she made the critical decision to learn everything she could about China. Several years later, she graduated from the University of Chicago as the only black student to earn an undergraduate degree in Chinese history. She'd end up advising Senator John McCain (R-AZ), Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, four-star generals and many other influential people. Live a life of adventure, personal growth, and achievement-and encourage others to do the same-with lessons learned in Leader Designed.
