In his first book, Turn the Ship Around! David Marquet described his experiences as captain aboard the nuclear submarine USS Santa Fe. When he took command, the ship was, how shall we say? “underperforming”
However, after one year, Santa Fe was recognized as the most improved ship in the fleet. In less than two years she shed her infamy as the worst boat in the navy and started winning awards as the best ship in her class.
Captain Marquet has released a new workbook to help others apply the framework he developed over those years of experimentation to their own organizations – to build highly effective communities based on personal responsibility and trust.
Leadership is not for the select few at the top. In highly effective organizations, there are leaders at every level.
