In this episode, Captain David Marquet shares his incredible turnaround of the USS Santa Fe submarine. We explore the limitations of traditional leadership he encountered on the sub, where crew morale and performance suffered. Captain Marquet sheds light on his decision to empower his crew through the Leader-Leader model, a concept he details in his book "Turn the Ship Around!". We delve into practical steps listeners can take to assess their own work culture and implement this model. Captain Marquet shares inspiring stories from the Santa Fe where crew members thrived under ownership and open discussion. He emphasizes the importance of continuous learning within the team and how disagreements can lead to better solutions. Finally, we discuss how the Leader-Leader model can adapt and flourish in the face of future challenges. Buckle up for an episode packed with insights on empowering your team and unlocking their full potential!
