Turn the Ship Around!

A lot of good points. Emphasizes creating a “leader-leader” dynamic between managers and managees, as opposed to the standard “leader-follower” dynamic.

Discusses some of the challenges in getting to a real “leader-leader” situation. Specifically: How to make people feel empowered to not have to ask permission all the time (allow them to make mistakes, don't jump in and correct them). How to make people think consciously before taking actions with severe consequences (say the action aloud to yourself). How to inspire people to connect the information they're receiving to the higher level objectives of the team, in order to make good decisions without needing to send everything up the chain of command (teach them concrete, applicable principles for how this team makes decisions). How long to expect this dynamic-shift to take (a few years).
