Description
Book SynopsisNavigate uncharted waters with visionary and inspirational leadership After a successful career in the navy, retired rear admiral Danelle Barrett knows plenty about effective, motivational leadership, and now she's sharing it with readers in any profession striving to be bold change leaders. As Barrett learned in the military, strong leadership is inherently about people and behavior, not formulas and complex theory. The hallmarks of great leaders are their vision, tenacity, integrity, and thoughtful mentorship of others. Barrett imparts her experience through practical advice and the best examples she's learned from the remarkable leaders she's served with in the United States Navy. She also includes plenty of wit via her many ""Sea Stories""-anecdotes told by sailors, chiefs, and officers, often embellished over time, that have humor, heart, and lessons to be learned. The bottom line is that leadership is not complicated, but it is deliberate. It can be summed up in these basic principles: • Inspire and connect • Find three positives • Don't be a jerk Becoming a fearless agent of change is particularly relevant today when faced with the unprecedented, accelerating, and exponential pace of technological advancement, and Barrett provides readers with powerful tools to succeed and ride the wave of this evolution
