Recommendation

Former Navy admiral Danelle Barrett serves up the no-nonsense wisdom of a career military leader, yet she advocates a nurturing leadership style that you might not associate with the armed forces. Using Naval idioms and humor, Barrett explains how her tough love, dedication to mentoring and commitment to work-life balance served her and her staff members over a long, successful career.

Take-Aways

  • Don’t waste your time searching for a single best way to lead. 
  • Successful leadership and mentoring apply mindful thought to action, every day.
  • To drive change, emphasize communication and transparency and invite multiple perspectives.
