The authors of this book have reverse-engineered the leadership techniques and strategies used to lead SEAL teams in combat, and applied them to the business world. The lessons they present - lessons that focus on the ability to create, manage, and lead effective teams - are as appropriate in the boardrooms of New York as they are on the battlefield. The book will teach leaders how to: effectively communicate objectives in a way that builds loyalty, and educates and motivates your workforce; construct and re-enforce organizational structures that optimize communication and decision-making processes; acquire and keep essential team members without resorting to pay increases; train and maintain an effective, market-leading team; leverage team members to expand and contract a workforce rapidly without business risk; and turn an employee into a profit. Entrusting real-life stories from the front lines to illustrate their points as well as examples from the business world, the Cannons' book will provide valuable guidance to managers and leaders.
