Sent to the most violent battlefield in Iraq, Jocko
Willink and Leif Babin’s SEAL task unit faced a seemingly impossible mission:
help U.S. forces secure Ramadi, a city deemed “all but lost.” In gripping
firsthand accounts of heroism, tragic loss, and hard-won victories in SEAL Team
Three’s Task Unit Bruiser, they learned that leadership―at every level―is the
most important factor in whether a team succeeds or fails. Willink and Babin
returned home from deployment and instituted SEAL leadership training that
helped forge the next generation of SEAL leaders. After departing the SEAL
Teams, they launched Echelon Front, a company that teaches these same
leadership principles to businesses and organizations. From promising startups
to Fortune 500 companies, Babin and Willink have helped scores of clients
across a broad range of industries build their own high-performance teams and
dominate their battlefields.
Now, detailing the mind-set and principles that enable
SEAL units to accomplish the most difficult missions in combat, Extreme
Ownership shows how to apply them to any team, family or organization. Each
chapter focuses on a specific topic such as Cover and Move, Decentralized
Command, and Leading Up the Chain, explaining what they are, why they are
important, and how to implement them in any leadership environment.
A compelling narrative with powerful instruction and
direct application, Extreme Ownership revolutionizes business management and
challenges leaders everywhere to fulfil their ultimate purpose: lead and win.
