A Practical Guide to Leadership
by Dave Oliver
Synopsis
Expand/Collapse Synopsis
“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.
Came across this "recommended" reading list intended to help prepare IDC Officers for their command screen board. While I love to read, I hate to read so-called "leadership books." Unfortunately, most of the books listed below fall into that category, in my opinion. To be blunt, it looks more like someone did an Amazon search for books and leadership, coming up with this list. It is way to long for a recommended reading list, especially one pertinent to a specific category, such as command screening. http://www.informationwarriors.net/viewtopic.php?t=1077

Two decades after its first publication, Roadside Kansasremains the premier guide to the geology, natural resources, landmarks, and landscapes along nine of the Sunflower State’s major highways.
During that span, however, many aspects of the Kansas landscape changed:
the growth of some towns and near disappearance of others, the expansion of highways, the development of industry.
Even the rocks themselves changed in places as erosion took its relentless toll.
More broadly, there have been changes in the science of geology.
This new edition reflects all of these changes and thoroughly updates the previous edition in ways that reinforce its preeminent status.
