ACROSS TWO WORLDS:Leadership Insights From Military And Corporate Life
The Transitioning Officer's Compass and What the Boardroom Can Learn from the QuarterdeckBy Cdr. Satish Kumar Yadav, Retd.
Length4h 24m
About this audiobook
What happens when two successful worlds approach leadership in very different ways? In "Across Two Worlds", former Indian Navy Commander Satish Kumar Yadav draws on 22 years in the Navy and more than a decade in corporate leadership to explore leadership through two contrasting organisational cultures. Through personal experiences, reflection and research, the book examines decision-making, people, accountability, performance, succession, collaboration, relationships and organisational culture. It is neither a military memoir nor a management textbook, but a thoughtful exploration of why leaders and organisations make different choices in different contexts—and what each world can learn from the other. The book will appeal to corporate leaders, managers, HR professionals, entrepreneurs, aspiring leaders, military professionals, veterans and anyone curious about leadership and organisational behaviour.
