In a groundbreaking, narrative-driven book for businesses, managers
(and those who aspire to the managerial ranks), and entrepreneurs, a
veteran Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer shows how the skills that enable
SEAL teams to achieve the impossible in the battlefield can help
business executives and career-minded individuals make better decisions
and get the best out of their teams.
Anyone can make good decisions when everything is in their favor. But in
life, as in war, it's in chaotic, challenging times that genuine leaders
distinguish themselves. As a Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer, Rob Roy
learned this lesson over twenty-five years of combat, in which the
difference between life and death was his team's ability to decode
complex environments, take decisive action, and seize opportunities when
they presented themselves.
In The Navy SEAL Art of War, Roy decodes the leadership lessons of the
battlefield for today's business leaders and individuals: how to make
good decisions under pressure, how to utilize and leverage the strengths
of others while minimizing the weaknesses of the individual or team, and
how to act instead of react, anticipating events despite having
minimal information and effectively communicating tasks and
priorities.
Illustrated with countless stories from the front lines, and featuring
unprecedented exercises and drills from the SEALs' training program,
The Navy SEAL Art of War is destined to take its place aside It's
Your Ship as a bestselling business classic.
