Laura’s brief guide to Turn The Ship Around
If want to start looking at your leadership journey afresh, I highly recommend David Marquet’s “Turn the Ship Around” as an introductory book. David Marquet narrates a fascinating chapter in his own leadership development with great lessons learned along the way.
Once you’ve read about the ladder of leadership, it’s time to delve into the vulnerabilities you can experience as a leader and why that’s useful when managing teams. Check out Bréne Brown’s “Dare to Lead”.
Lastly, for a unique look at doing business a different way, pick up Yvon Chouinard’s “Let My People Go Surfing”. The founder of Patagonia shares his philosophy on leadership through telling the story of the development of the company.
