"When I read the leading books on reputation management, one book stood head and shoulders above the others, the one by John Doorley and Helio Fred Garcia.

About the author

For more than 40 years Helio Fred Garcia has helped leaders build trust, inspire loyalty, and lead effectively. He is a coach, counselor, teacher, writer, and speaker whose clients include some of the largest and best-known companies and organizations in the world.
His most recent book (2020) is Words on Fire: The Power of Incendiary Language and How to Confront It. Words on Fire is about the power of communication to do great harm, and how civic leaders and engaged citizens can hold leaders accountable to prevent such harm. It focuses on the language President Trump uses that conditions an audience to accept, condone, and commit violence against a targeted group, rival, or critics.
The book includes a history of such rhetoric, and identifies a playbook consisting of 12 forms of communication that typically precede genocides. Trump uses all 12. The language triggers lone wolves to commit violence. Since 9/11 rhetoric that provokes violence has been known as “stochastic terrorism,” a phrase that tends to confuse and makes discussion difficult. The author suggests a more accessible name: lone-wolf whistle violence.
The book documents Trump’s increasingly dangerous rhetoric through the campaign and first 2 ½ years in office, and how lone wolves were motivated by the rhetoric to commit violence. It also describes the changes in the nation’s political culture and media that led to Trump’s nomination and presidency. It includes examples of leaders who dialed back their rhetoric when it was shown to put people’s lives at risk. It closes with call to action: We can learn the lessons of today to prepare for tomorrow, to help civic leaders, engaged citizens, journalists, and public officials recognize the phenomenon and take steps to hold other leaders accountable in the future when they use such language.
His prior book (2017), The Agony of Decision: Mental Readiness and Leadership in a Crisis, was named one of the Best New Crisis Management Books of 2018 and also One of the Best Crisis Management Books of All Time by Book Authority, the world's leading site for nonfiction recommendations.
