Publisher's Summary

The story of Captain Abrashoff and his command of USS Benfold has become legendary inside and outside the Navy. By governing his ship through his unique management techniques, Abrashoff turned the Benfold 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, in his newest book It's Your Ship - in the same rugged, can-do voice - Abrashoff will focus on 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 will be eminently prescriptive and will feature anecdotes and insights from leaders of businesses large and small and from public and non-profit sectors.

Fascinating stories with practical application to any organization

I found this author while searching for a guest speaker for a conference. I love this title “it’s our ship” and how that and the advice within the book applies to all organizations. The stories offered great examples of good and bad leadership with practical takeaways for the reader. I’d recommend this book to anyone but particularly those interested in improving morale in the company.
