Business Leadership the Marine Corps Way: From Basic Training on to Victory 1st, 1st Printing edition by Dan Carrison, Rod Walsh (2004) Hardcover

Written by two former Marines who are now successful businessmen, Business Leadership the Marine Corps Way presents the leadership principles that have been refined by the Marine Corps over the last two hundred years, as well as the bold, groundbreaking training innovations of today. Designed to bring out the best in people, these leadership tactics are translated to the corporate environment – with results that can be surprising and highly effective. You’ll learn all about the Marine Corps approach to: recruiting the best people – not necessarily those with the flashiest resume, but the people with the most dedication and integrity providing in-depth, hands-on “basic training” for new employees leading at every level: supervisory (the rank and file), middle management (the mission), and senior management (the organization) marching to victory using 10 competitive strategies – each as applicable to the marketplace as to the battlefield.

For all the differences between the armed services and the profit-driven corporation, they share a key goal: to build and sustain a committed, motivated group of people that will band together to achieve success. Business Leadership the Marine Corps Way is an evocative and ingenious guide for making that goal a reality.
