Do you wonder what we did with all the US money pumped into Afghanistan? Or...how it was all spent? This is the inside story of the United States' army-building efforts written from the unique vantage point of the on-the-ground Army officer responsible for fiscally building the Afghanistan National Army. The author relates his experience transforming the Afghanistan Army to the awkward Middle-Eastern sage who was riding his donkey backwards so that he "could always see where he had been." The circumstances and stories of this book are interlaced with humor and innovation that bring the reader into the middle of the conundrum that is the US involvement in Afghanistan.As the first comptroller responsible for building the Afghanistan National Army, author Mick Simonelli earned the Bronze Star Medal while working out of the war-torn Embassy in Kabul. A lifelong innovation strategist, Mick would later use lessons learned from Afghanistan to transition from a military officer to leading innovation at a major US corporation, to ultimately running his own strategic innovation consulting firms. Mick has shared the cultural insights and business challenges of the US Army-building role on numerous national venues including, National Public Radio, CNN International, and Armed Forces News. If you're involved with Afghanistan or their military, this book will provide the keen insights that you want to know. Scroll to the top of this page and click the "Buy Now" button.
