Turn the Ship Around!
Description. A short description of a book from my bookshelf, not a review.
Captain David Marquet describes how he transformed the submarine USS Santa Fe from one of the worst-performing boats in the US Navy to one of the best by moving from a leader-follower model to a leader-leader model, giving control to the crew while building their competence and clarity.
The book is practical and anecdotal, and its ideas on empowerment and intent-based command have been widely adopted in business as well as the military.
