'Extreme Ownership: How Navy SEALs Lead and Win' is a 🏷️#nytimes-bestseller detailing the mindset and principles which enabled SEAL units to accomplish impossible combat missions. The 🏷️#book, co-authored by 🏷️#navy-seals 📝Jocko Willink and 📝Leif Babin, shares visceral stories of combat and translates them into lessons for business and life. [1][2]
The book provides readers with Willink and Babin's formula for success; the mindset and guiding principles that enable the achievement of extraordinary results in any leadership environment. 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're important, and how to implement them.
My reading of 🏷️#extreme-ownership was prompted by 📝Tim Ferriss' inclusion of Jocko on the 📝The Tim Ferriss Show and later mention in 📝Tribe of Mentors. [3]
