I honestly tried to help. For a fairly long time. But in the end I got so frustrated I had to back away and leave it to others. It just didn't work for me to be working for a leader like that.

So many people get too busy to manage and just react. By doind so they loose their credibility. Finding the right person for the job is, as the book points out, crucial. I think it takes a conscious decision to put plans in place. Chris, you mentioned this in another post -- about hurricanes and making contingency plans. You think through what might be coming, and put contingency plans in place. A good manager should do the same, and not just for emergencies. Then, when those situations come, the manager will know what to do without having to do too much thinking. The manager will know who to call because the situation has already been dealt with, to some degree, in the manager's mind. Chris and Rich,

Bruce Willis, Charlie Sheen image, Rick. But most of the one's I've met have been very low key for the most part. You'd never guess they were very dangerous men unless you first saw them geared up. Glad you found the book. It's a good one. It’s true that SEALS have that Hoorah! Bruce Willis, Charlie Sheen image, Rick.

I suspect it's because I feel like shouting "HOORAH!" after reading parts of Leadership Lessons of the Navy Seals. It just makes sense. It's applicable, and it points out to me things I've grown accustomed to working around and I don't even notice any more... and not great things either. Leadership Lessons of the Navy Seals is certainly a book I wish I'd found sooner. I have to agree about the exclamation points.
