Beginning with the riveting, true story of Massachusetts clipper ship Captain Josiah Nickerson Knowles who saved his crew and all but one passenger during not one but two shipwrecks in the Pacific, this valuable guide presents a proven process to overcome - and lead through - chaos and disorder.
“Disruption creates 10 times the opportunity to advance your organization and your career.” That sentence alone sums up the theses of Peter J. Boni’s book “All Hands on Deck: Navigating Your Team Through Crises, Getting Your Organization Unstuck and Emerging Victorious”. By using a story about Massachusetts clipper ship Captain Josia Nickerson Knowles who saved his passengers and crew twice in Pacific shipwrecks, Boni demonstrates how adversity should be embraced and used to inspire employees to keep organizations heading in the right direction. As business books go, this one is clearly written and uses several real life examples in the workplace to illustrate Boni’s “12-Step Kedge-Off Process”. I spoke with Peter J. Boni and that conversation can be heard here: http://dougmilesmedia.com/?p=1582
