Bullets, Basketballs, and Boardrooms: Supercharge Your Leadership: Triangulating the Best Leadership Strategies from the US Navy Seals, Professional S
This book is designed to supercharge your leadership skills by triangulating winning leadership strategies from the U.S. Navy SEALs, professional sports, and executive business.
There is an undeniable demand for great leaders today. Individuals who excel as leaders are able to attract exceptional people to an organization and then foster a sense of connectedness within the team and to the company. The result is a more resilient organization in a fast-evolving world, a team that continuously strives for improvement, experiences lower turnover of valued personnel, and outperforms its competition.
Yet cultivating the next generation of exceptional leaders is an unmet challenge for most organizations. While they may recognize the need for developing the next leaders of their organizations, the training provided to those driven individuals is largely ineffective--or lacking altogether.
In Bullets, Basketballs & Boardrooms: Triangulating the Best Leadership Practices from Three Elite Disciplines, authors Dave Hubinger, Andrew Pence, and Jim Brogan share practical insights developed throughout their collective ninety years of experience in their individual professions--military special operations, professional sports, and executive business. These insights facilitate a leader's better understanding of themselves and their ability to navigate the complex landscape of their role. That begins by having an intimate understanding of the values that drive an individual to excellence. With that deep knowledge of oneself, combined with an unconventional array of tools to effectively connect with their teams, leaders can create an organization that excels now and into the future.
Each chapter begins with three distinct "leadership truths" that the authors have found to be universally applicable to leaders and teams in each of their disciplines. The chapters then contain subsections of insights and tips from each author individually. Finally, chapters conclude with action items that challenge the reader to begin transformative measures to elevate and hone their leadership habits and abilities, personally and professionally. Chapter content also addresses insights for the reader to elevate the efficacy and performance of their teams and, ultimately, their organizations. The book concludes with the authors' daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly "make it real" actions to execute for personal growth, greater leadership effectiveness, more connected relationships, and sustainable change.
