Book Description
================
The story of Captain D. Michael Abrashoff and his command of USS Benfold has become legendary inside and outside the
Navy. Now Abrashoff offers this fascinating tale of top-down change for anyone trying to navigate today's uncertain
business seas. When Captain Abrashoff took over as commander of the Benfold, a ship armed with every cutting-edge system
available, it was like a business that had all the latest technology but only some of the productivity.
Knowing that responsibility for improving performance rested with him, he realized he had to improve his own leadership
skills before he could improve his ship. Within months he created a crew of confident and inspired problem-solvers eager
to take the initiative and take responsibility for their actions. The slogan on board became "It's your ship," and
Benfold was soon recognized far and wide as a model of naval efficiency. How did Abrashoff do it?
Against the backdrop of today's United States Navy - Benfold was a key player in our Persian Gulf fleet - Abrashoff
shares his secrets of successful management including:
From achieving amazing cost savings to winning the highest gunnery score in the Pacific Fleet, Captain Abrashoff's
extraordinary campaign sent shock waves through the U.S. Navy. It can help you change the course of your ship, no matter
where your business battles are fought.
