Autographed Copy of "Turn the Ship Around!"

Part story-telling, part leadership transformation, part actionable take-aways, and based on David’s experience turning around the nuclear submarine USS Santa Fe, this book leaves audiences reinvigorated to lead, with immediately actionable tools and a commitment to change.

Intent Based Leadership creates environments for people to contribute so that they feel valued. They set clear goals so their people know how to do their jobs. They push control and decision making down the organization so people take responsibility and rise to the occasion. They maintain unity of effort by ensuring the supporting pillars of technical competence and organizational clarity are in place. They create more leaders at every level.

As a result, they achieve:

• A highly effective organization with superior morale and lower turnover.
• A resilient organization that can adapt faster than leader-follower organizations.
• Excellence, as opposed to simply a reduction of errors.
• A culture that creates additional leaders throughout every level of the organization.
