An updated edition of the blockbuster best-selling leadership book that took America and the world by storm, two US Navy SEAL officers who led the most highly decorated special operations unit of the Iraq War demonstrate how to apply powerful leadership principles from the battlefield to business and life.

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. 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.

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.

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?

Die Seal-Offiziere Jocko Willink und Leif Babin führten verschiedene Special-Forces-Einheiten erfolgreich durch die blutigen Wirren des Irakkriegs. Um diese ultimativen Stresssituationen zu überstehen, entwickelten sie eine ganz spezielle Kultur der Disziplin und Verantwortung, die sie für die nächste Generation der Seal-Führungsebene zusammengefasst haben.

Un buon leader non cerca scuse: trova sempre un modo di fare le cose. Se non metti nulla in discussione, nulla migliorerà. L'esitazione è un nemico che fa perdere opportunità. L'ego annebbia e distrugge ogni cosa. Disciplina significa libertà: metti la sveglia e buttati giù dal letto appena suona. Non arrenderti. E soprattutto, mai, ma proprio mai, dire ma. Questa è la regola aurea per avere successo nella vita e nel lavoro: assumersi la responsabilità degli errori e non scaricare la colpa sugli altri o sulle circostanze.
