The legendary navy captain and New York Times–bestselling author of It’s Your Ship returns with winning leadership advice for the business world.

The story of Captain Abrashoff and his transformative command of USS Benfold has become a fable of smart leadership inside and outside the Navy. Abrashoff turned his ship into a model of naval efficiency, with amazing cost savings, the highest gunnery score in the Pacific Fleet, and a highly motivated and top performing crew.

In It’s Your Ship, he first demonstrated how to bring his successful management techniques from the ship to the boardroom. Now Abrashoff shares the leadership, motivational, and management insights and tips that he has learned from his last six years of addressing business and corporate audiences.

Abrashoff’s timely advice is wise, actionable, and features anecdotes and insights from leaders of businesses both large and small from public and non-profit sectors.
