het kostte me aardig wat moeite door het amerikaanse en militaire heen te prikken， maar als je lukt krijgt je mooie inzichten

Brilliant book。 Ties in well with the extreme ownership book without being repetitive。 Highly recommend for any leaders out there。

Good collection of bite-sized leadership snippets。 Not as in-depth as Jocko's first two books in the series， but a good accompanying read。 Good collection of bite-sized leadership snippets。 Not as in-depth as Jocko's first two books in the series， but a good accompanying read。 。。。more

First， I’m a fan of pretty much anything Jocko Willink writes。 Through my experience， I find his perspectives on leadership to be spot on。 Second， each section is in short digestible chunks， making it a fairly quick and easy read with nice breakpoints。 Finally， this little book is organized in such a way it can be easily referenced for a variety of scenarios， whether you’re in a position of leadership or not。 Situations may not apply to you now， but if/when they do， you can pull this book out as First， I’m a fan of pretty much anything Jocko Willink writes。 Through my experience， I find his perspectives on leadership to be spot on。 Second， each section is in short digestible chunks， making it a fairly quick and easy read with nice breakpoints。 Finally， this little book is organized in such a way it can be easily referenced for a variety of scenarios， whether you’re in a position of leadership or not。 Situations may not apply to you now， but if/when they do， you can pull this book out as a handy reference。 My one nitpick is related to this—there’s a lot of repetition throughout， but it’s likely needed given the intended standalone structure of the chapters/sections。 I highly recommend picking this book up （along with Extreme Ownership）—I expect I’ll refer to it often。 。。。more

Q:I often tell leaders that what makes leadership so hard is dealing with people， and people are crazy。 And the craziest person a leader has to deal with is themselves。 That being said， even crazy has a pattern; there are patterns to human behavior。 If you can recognize the patterns， you can predict the way things are likely to unfold and influence them。culture: you can never rest on what you have achieved in the past。 You always have to improve。Make it a goal to avoid being fully absorbed in th Q:I often tell leaders that what makes leadership so hard is dealing with people， and people are crazy。 And the craziest person a leader has to deal with is themselves。 That being said， even crazy has a pattern; there are patterns to human behavior。 If you can recognize the patterns， you can predict the way things are likely to unfold and influence them。culture: you can never rest on what you have achieved in the past。 You always have to improve。Make it a goal to avoid being fully absorbed in the minute details of any situation。I realized I didn’t always need to lead。 I didn’t need to be at the center of decision-making。 I realized it was my job to support the team and the mission， which meant supporting the boss。The Dichotomy of Leadership describes opposing forces that are pulling leaders in contradictory directions at the same time。 Any trait， technique， or attitude can easily go too far in one direction or the other。 To lead properly， a leader must be balanced。 For example， leaders must talk， but if they talk too much， they overwhelm their subordinates with information。 On the other hand， if they talk too little， the troops aren’t properly informed。 So the leader has to balance between talking too much and talking too little。 A leader must be aggressive， but if they are too aggressive， they might expose themselves to unnecessary risk。 Contrarily， if they are not aggressive enough， they will never make progress。 So once again， a leader has to be balanced。 This list of dichotomies goes on indefinitely， and the answer is always that a leader must maintain balance。I would not allow a decision to be made that might have significant negative impact if my subordinate makes the wrong call; instead， I would select a decision for the subordinate to make that would cause little trouble if the wrong decision were made。 It is the same for allowing a subordinate to solve a problem。 I wouldn’t give them a problem to solve where failure to solve the problem would result in a broader catastrophe; instead， I would give the subordinate a problem that would be easy to recover from should a solution not be found in a timely manner。Be humble。 It is an honor to be in a leadership position。 Your team is counting on you to make the right decisions。 Don’t act like you know everything。 You don’t。 The team knows that。 Ask smart questions。 Listen。 Ask for advice and heed it。 Treat people with respect。 Regardless of rank， everyone is a human being and plays an important role in the team。 Treat them that way。 Take care of your people and they will take care of you。 Take ownership of failures and mistakes。 Pass credit for success up and down the chain。 Work hard。 As the leader， you should be working harder than anyone else on the team。 No job is beneath you。 Have integrity。 Do what you say; say what you do。 Don’t lie up or down the chain of command。 Be balanced。 Extreme actions and opinions are usually not good。 Be decisive。 When it is time to make a decision， make one。 Build relationships。 That is your main goal as a leader。 A team is a group of people who have relationships and trust one another。 Otherwise， it is just a disconnected， incoherent cluster of people。 Lastly， get the job done。 That is the purpose of a leader—to lead a team in accomplishing a mission。 If you don’t accomplish the mission， you fail as a leader。 Performance counts。 。。。more

If you’re military， law enforcement， or Fire- you will relate to these strategies and tactics。 Even in the business world， this book can held guide you in basic leadership fundamentals。 This book will give you different perspectives from a boss’s perspective， and from the subordinates by giving you examples。 The examples of horrible and successful leadership Jocko gives is something I can directly relate to in the first responder world。 But like I said， you don’t have to be military/first respon If you’re military， law enforcement， or Fire- you will relate to these strategies and tactics。 Even in the business world， this book can held guide you in basic leadership fundamentals。 This book will give you different perspectives from a boss’s perspective， and from the subordinates by giving you examples。 The examples of horrible and successful leadership Jocko gives is something I can directly relate to in the first responder world。 But like I said， you don’t have to be military/first responder to relate to this book。 This can even help you in the business world or parenting。 Bottom line is， it all starts with discipline。 And discipline will give you freedom。 Buy this book if you are young leader， ambitious， and getting after it every day to receive a humble pie on how you might be doing things wrong or even correct。 You will be a good leader from these tactics and strategies- IF you implement them。 Buy this book。 。。。more

I'm usually quite suspicious of books touting "revolutions in leadership" or "leadership guides" in general， as they often seem to contain a lot of bogus pseudo-psychological knowledge that will do you little to no good in a boots-on-the-ground situation。However， this one has suprised me very positively。 Many concepts this book contains are stellar maxims of leadership， first and foremost the concept of "extreme ownership"， and willink absolutely knows what he's talking about。However， one issue I'm usually quite suspicious of books touting "revolutions in leadership" or "leadership guides" in general， as they often seem to contain a lot of bogus pseudo-psychological knowledge that will do you little to no good in a boots-on-the-ground situation。However， this one has suprised me very positively。 Many concepts this book contains are stellar maxims of leadership， first and foremost the concept of "extreme ownership"， and willink absolutely knows what he's talking about。However， one issue i have that this book often feels like it's very military-oriented and i don't really see how you could apply some of the advice in this book to a civilian leadership position。 Now， i'm in the military， so i really don't give a hoot， but others might find some of the advice hard to execute。Overall however， a great read。 。。。more

Jocko Willink’s third major book on leadership after retiring from the Navy SEALS， this book was a grab bag of leadership advice， tough guy growling， and completely inapplicable advice for how to lead soldiers in a fire fight。Some advice lurked in the pages that I can see a beneficial for the corporate world， but the book was entirely bogged down by examples that went way too far into the weeds。Compare Willink’s book to The Wisdom of the Bullfrog by Admiral McRaven， and you get a sense for a boo Jocko Willink’s third major book on leadership after retiring from the Navy SEALS， this book was a grab bag of leadership advice， tough guy growling， and completely inapplicable advice for how to lead soldiers in a fire fight。Some advice lurked in the pages that I can see a beneficial for the corporate world， but the book was entirely bogged down by examples that went way too far into the weeds。Compare Willink’s book to The Wisdom of the Bullfrog by Admiral McRaven， and you get a sense for a book that gave advice with SEALS stories that were directly applicable to non-military life。I wouldn’t recommend this book unless you’re easily impressed with tough guys or in the SEALS。 It’s too unfocused to be useful。 。。。more

I was disappointed in this book。 I have loved everything Jocko has written， but this was all regurgitated into a shorter form。 I think this book would be helpful to someone in the military， but other than that， stick to his other books as they are more in-depth， and you get the same information。
