Turn the Ship Around!
L. David Marquet
The story of hard won lessons from the former commander of the USS Sante Fe nuclear submarine and how he took it from being the worst performer in the fleet to the best ever rated.
Imagine what it takes to take command of a Nuclear Submarine. It takes years of study, and a deep understanding of the roster of the crew. Captain Marquet spent two years studying to take command of the USS Olympia, and two weeks before he was to take command, he was transferred to the USS Santa Fe... a completely different class of submarine. The Santa Fe was not just a completely unfamiliar submarine, but it was a very unhappy crew and a notorious poor performer.
This book tells the story about how Marquet ended up in that position, how he worked with it. It covers his successes but also his failures and hard won lessons.
