"A warm yet specific book which cuts to the heart of leadership
issues and savvy."--The Bookwatch Informal, even conversational in
style, Lead On! is nevertheless a serious handbook from which
aspiring leaders can learn how to achieve seemingly impossible
goals. The book is replete with examples from the author's
experience and from the history of the nuclear navy, where the
price of failure can be death. Civilian managers will find that
many of the principles discussed here can be employed with profit
in private industry. The old school of motivation by coercion never
accomplished much with submarine sailors, who are among the navy's
elite, and the author has found that what works with this new breed
of mariner-technician can be of enormous value in dealing with the
members of an entrepreneurial organization. Praise for Lead On! "A
wealth of advice on military leadership that is also pertinent to
civilian managers."--The Retired Officer "It is a particular
pleasure to see an officer from the 'silent service' publish his
thoughts and viewpoints. In a light and breezy style . . . Admiral
Oliver [expresses] some current thinking on critical issues."--USNI
