Every leader must be ready and willing to take charge, to make hard, crucial calls for the good of the team and the mission. Something much more difficult to understand is that in order to be a good leader, one must also be a good follower. This is a dichotomy - a Dichotomy of Leadership. It is, as authors Jocko Willink and Leif Babin explained in their best-selling first audiobook, Extreme Ownership, “Simple, Not Easy”.

Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc's life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn't swim. But what was the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who called himself the "King of the Jungle". When Marc's mother tells him that his uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can't wait. Uncle Jake is a for-real super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan.

Story
Body language experts believe that over 93% of all human communication is nonverbal and only 7% of communication is verbal! Experts have gone further to explain that of nonverbal communication, body language accounts for 55% while tone of voice accounts for up to 38%! What does this mean? It means no matter how much you master verbal communication by using the right words, you may not really influence people if you cannot pair that with proper body language and tone of voice!

In Way of the Warrior Kid, Marc went from wimp to warrior in one summer. He learned to be strong inside and out, mastered his multiplication tables, conquered his fear of swimming, and even made nice with the meanest kid on the playground (who turned out to be not so mean after all). Now, in this second audiobook in the middle grade Warrior Kid series, Marc uses what he learned last summer to help another kid who needs a boost. Can he take the skills he learned from his Navy SEAL uncle Jake to instill the warrior spirit in someone who needs his help?

A well narrated, deep dive into a simple theory
- By Olivier on 2018-08-17
Publisher's Summary
This program is read by the author.
The ultimate guide on leadership from the number-one New York Times best-selling coauthor of Extreme Ownership.
In the military, a field manual provides instructions in simple, clear, step-by-step language to help soldiers complete their mission. In the civilian sector, books offer information on everything from fixing a leaky faucet to developing an effective workout program to cooking a good steak.
But what if you are promoted into a new position leading your former peers? What if you don’t get selected for the leadership position you wanted? How do you overcome imposter syndrome when you aren’t sure you should be leading? As a leader, how do you judiciously dole out punishment? What about reward? How do you build trust with your both your superiors and your subordinates? How do you deliver truthful criticism up and down the chain of command in a tactful and positive way?
These are all questions about leadership - the most complex of all human endeavors. And while there are books out there that provide solid leadership principles, books like Extreme Ownership and The Dichotomy of Leadership, there is no leadership field manual that provides a direct, situational, pragmatic how-to guide that anyone can instantly put to use.
Until now. Leadership Strategy and Tactics explains how to take leadership theory, quickly translate that theory into applicable strategy, and then put leadership into action at a tactical level. This audiobook is the solution that leaders at every level need - not just to understand the leadership game but also how to play the leadership game and win it.

Extremely Refreshing
There was a time when a handshake was enough to seal a deal. A time when honour, discipline, and acts of burying the ego were normative behaviours. A time when doing the right thing was not about garnering attention, but upholding a standard. There was a time when the norms of business and social behaviour were dominated by individuals that learned self-discipline and leadership through military service. That influence is less present in our modern world, but the standards they endeared are no less valuable. Jocko Willink’s book engenders those standards and beyond. For most that have served time in military service, the standards of discipline and principled leadership are learned through an implicit process, being part of the system. Implicit learning is important because it teaches instinct and habit, but it does not always provide a clear framework. Implicit learning follows a convergent path, gradually shaping an individual’s behaviours through experience. The problem with implicit learning is that without a clear standard, a clear goal, the learning process can be long, and some lessons may never be learned. Jocko’s book bridges that gap by providing a clear framework, a goal, a standard of leadership that is worthy of aspiration. This is not a book about becoming a great leader in the manner of Napoleon or Alexander, it is a book that exemplifies the standards for professional leadership. Leadership that is built on strength, self-control, and sensitivity to the needs and mannerisms of real people. A guidebook that completes the cognitive map of what a leader should be. For those actively involved in military service Jocko’s book offers a perfect compliment to their implicit learning path, a clear framework that enables a path to deliberate, conscious learning. For those in the business world, it defines a goal to which leaders may strive while plotting their own experiential path. For me it was revelatory in that it defined many leadership principles that I previously sensed, but could not elucidate. It was also a refreshing affirmation, that in a world where narcissistic tendencies have become more prevalent, there is still value in those old standards of self-control.

Liked it so much I'm driving to NY to see him chat
JOCKO - if I had you as a mentor (writing, podcasts, the 'gram, etc.) growing up, I'd be a different person today as an adult. I've read (and re-read) every book you and Leif have put out, and those you drafted on your own. My six-year-old is about as big a Mikey fan as you could imagine. I have achieved a lot in my life, but a few years ago I got comfortable. I have served my country, but I stopped serving, and stopped hard, I did. I am now back on track, better than ever, and I take your words seriously and have implemented much into my daily routing including beating you to rise at 4:30 - a game I like to play. "Leadership Strategy and Tactics" didn't disappoint. I read half last night when I got home from work (thanks for the prompt shipping, Amazon!) and finished the rest after buying the Audible this morning during my commute and first few hours in the office. About to listen again and take notes. Thank you, sincerely, for making me a better husband, father, worker, owner of a company and servant of others. Semper Fidelis, Bretton

An Intense Insistence on Responsible Leadership
Performance: Though it is not often the case that a Narrator is also the Author, and more so ever succeed at both rolls equally, Jocko Willink does just that. Jocko does not read blandly, robotically, or otherwise, and sound quality is also quite good. So while some may hold the vocal intensity as a detriment to listening to this book, I find it only drives the importance of particular topics home, and you can pick up and can hear the differences in his approach and speaking to do just that. Story/Content: It does not take much research to know the author promotes "Extreme Responsibility". And this book doubly supports and encourages such to a fever point. There is good reasoning and logic behind the principals, as with great responsibility comes great power and control over a situation, with a strong focus on Team Achievement over Personal Achievement alone. Yet this book also gives examples, though somewhat anecdotal, of the thought process in action. Further more explaining/suggesting how you can expect The Team, or people in general to react in situations and why your actions will prepare for that in advance. Compared to how many Leadership books simply focus on personal character without application. Yet the sheer intensity in the approach, even if wise, is difficult to leap into. And the book doesn't offer or suggest a way of easing into the role which I believe other reader's may have difficulty adjusting to. Overall: A practical, heavily team focused, approach to dealing with Leadership . And when used with respect and thought, can garner great results. Though sometimes the reader may be left to wonder where exactly is a good starting point, what are the downsides or counter-arguments , and if accepting all of these burdens are actually worthwhile. But if managed, makes a great addition to a Leader's toolkit, and provides ample viewpoints to consider.
