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

L. David Marquet commanded the nuclear-powered, fast-attack submarine USS Santa Fe from 1999 to 2001. After implementing Intent-Based Leadership, not only did the Santa Fe go from worst to first in Navy retention and ratings, but also a highly disproportionate number of its officers and crew were promoted to leadership positions. David is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Turn the Ship Around!, Leadership Is Language, and Distancing. David lives in Florida with his wife, Jane. Andy Worshek served with David Marquet and was instrumental in the turnaround of the USS Santa Fe, told in the business bestseller Turn the Ship Around! where he is prominently mentioned. Andy now travels extensively, delivering keynotes and workshops on Intent-Based Leadership. Jeffrey Leap was a Lean/Agile Coach and Trainer at Adobe before joining the Turn the Ship Around! team. He has twenty-seven years of experience in a wide range of roles in spacecraft mission operations, software development, project management, and process improvement working at Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Compaq Computers, and Cisco.
