L. David Marquet, a former commander of a US Navy nuclear submarine, narrates how he transformed an underperforming vessel into a ship of excellence through a revolutionary leadership model: delegating authority and trust. Instead of giving orders, Marquet started asking subordinates how they would solve problems.
This inspiring account demonstrates in practice how empowerment, clarity of purpose, and respect for people's intelligence can transform any organization. Essential for leaders who want to create a culture of accountability, innovation, and excellence.

”a wonderful book about a naval, not Commander, but Admiral or something that was running one of the worst performing U.S. nuclear submarines and turned it around to be the best performing U.S. submarine”
”It had a profound effect on me.”
”Based on real events, Marquet presents his ideas in a remarkably practical way — perfect for putting into practice.”
