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. In ihrem Buch Extreme Ownership, sprich Verantwortung, erläutern die beiden Elitesoldaten jetzt, wie sie ihre Einheiten durch schwierigste Kriegseinsätze führen konnten und demonstrieren, wie ihre effektiven Führungsprinzipien vom Schlachtfeld optimal in das unternehmerische Umfeld, auf Teams und auf den Alltag übertragen werden können. Ihr Erfolgsgeheimnis: Verantwortung für die eigenen Fehler übernehmen, aus den Misserfolgen lernen und auf dieser Grundlage neue Lösungsansätze entwickeln.
