Gerald D. Curry Aids Black Military Personnel in New Book
Gainesville, VA (PRWEB) April 16, 2014 -- Author Gerald D. Curry believes the success of today’s black military personnel rests squarely on the shoulders of the men and women of past military service.
In his new book, “Striving for Perfection: Developing Professional Black Leaders” (published by iUniverse), Curry – a former U.S. Air Force Colonel, reaches back through the annals of history to help today’s professional military officers navigate successful careers.
Curry shares little-known insights on historical accomplishments of military personnel serving in every major war in history, from the Revolutionary War through the Global War on Terrorism. He pulls unique examples of success strategies, cultural understandings and sage advice from African American servicemen and women who have donned the American military uniform.
“Striving for Perfection” is a guide describing in detail the barriers that exist within most black communities and narrates how these neighborhoods continually birth great military leaders. Although geared toward military professionals, Curry’s book strives to help all leaders in any profession who work with African Americans. Introducing proven success strategies, the book provides readers a clear understanding of diversity and inclusion in the world at large.
“Striving for Perfection” has been selected for inclusion in the iUniverse Rising Star program, which recognizes excellence in writing and overall potential.
