The Turn the Ship Around! Workbook

By Andy Worshek, L David Marquet, Jeffrey Leap

In his book Turn the Ship Around former U.S. Navy Captain David Marquet introduced a bold new approach to leadership based on his experiences turning around the troubled submarine USS Santa Fe. He gave up the traditional command-and-control model and instead developed a crew that took initiative, assumed responsibility, and was biased for action. The Santa Fe rapidly improved its performance, started winning awards, and created more subsequent leaders than any other submarine in the fleet.

This workbook will help you apply Marquet's methods to your organization. With the questions, activities, and exercises used in Fortune 500 workshops on how to delegate and inspire, it will show you how to build a work community based on personality responsibility and trust. Whether you sit in a cubicle or stand on a submarine deck, these tools will help you create a healthier and more effective workplace.

This third edition of The Turn the Ship Around Workbook has been updated with more exercises, new research, and links to "Leadership Nudges"-one-minute videos that will help you implement Intent-Based Leadership.

"David Marquet is the kind of leader who comes around only once in a generation. He doesn't just know how to lead; he knows how to build leaders. His ideas and lessons are invaluable to anyone who wants to build an organization that will outlive them."-Simon Sinek, optimist and author of Start with Why and Leaders Eat Last
