Why groups read L. David Marquet
L. David Marquet commanded the nuclear-powered, fast-attack submarine USS Santa Fe from 1999 to 2001, and he writes about leadership from that command.
Turn the Ship Around! is the true story of turning followers into leaders, written for teams that want the people closest to the work to make the decisions. Leadership Is Language carries the idea into the words a team uses every day. Distancing, written with Michael A. Gillespie, shows how great leaders reframe to make better decisions, and The Turn the Ship Around! Workbook gives a group something to fill in together. Teams often start with Turn the Ship Around! and add the others as the conversation grows.
