Leadership is Language
by L. David Marquet
In a nutshell
A guide to help you empower your team and create a culture of open and effective communication.
Most of us still use language inherited from a time when workers worked with their hands and managers worked with their heads.
Today, your team do so much more than simply follow orders. They solve problems and drive business performance, and it’s time we updated our language to reflect that.
Lieutenant David Marquet is a top graduate from the US Naval Academy and ex-commander of the nuclear-powered, fast-attack submarine, USS Santa Fe.
Leadership is Language is his second book, which he was inspired to write after learning about the fate of the crew aboard the El Faro container ship in 2015.
It is a radical new playbook for empowering your team to make better decisions and take greater ownership.
Read this to understand how the words you do and don’t use impact the people around you.
